There has been discussion from time to time about this. I think the mirror changed... maybe sometime in 01 or early 02. Either way I can confirm the wedge bulbs are used in my 02 TA.

single 3mm leds that you have to solder in with resistors, 2 leds per switch.

Just a simple look will help... Go out to your car and look at the bulbs... If they are tubes then you will get the festoons. If they are simple little bulbs they are the wedge lights (194)

Does anyone have a write up on how to convert the switches to led? Pics would help also.

what color led did you go with and is that the stock overlay?

also what are the stock size/# of bulbs used in a '99 cluster?

^ Those are the white wLED5's. They say white, but they end up looking blue. Not sure if it's just that we're used to seeing an orange inky light or what.


And has anyone used LEDs for the tails or third brake light?? Any real difference with them? I've got VHTd tails, so I'm wondering if they'd be brighter.

They are white LEDs. The stock blue lens behind the cluster gives it the bluish white look. I have the macewan overlay on mine. The bulb sizes can be found on the first page.

superbrightleds.com now has a "vehicle bulb finder". you enter your year, make and model and it displays all the OEM bulbs and the LED alternative available through the website. just a heads up.

^^They will stay red. High power 3157 white Vled bulbs work best for the reverse lamps..

The 4410-xHP9's for the Dome/Cargo light don't fit exactly right. I modified the prongs to accept it, but it's still not right. It has to be turned 90* to face downward.

And I can't get the rear view bulbs to sit right either. I used the 4410x9's. the xHP9's won't work. The 4410x9's FIT, but something isn't making a complete connection. I pulled the rear view off and apart to figure it out. they're a little tighter now, but when I start the car, the vibration of idle loosens something.

And it called for 3 of xHP3 for the HVAC panel. They fit good and work, but I only found a spot for two of them.. Ideas??

Should come out rather easy. Or use a "bulb puller tool".
And I wish I woulda known that 5 hours ago.. It was a pain getting them out. Broke both of em then broke the rest with a small carb/jet flat-head screwdriver. And a SMALL set of needle-nose finally got them out.

Hey guys, so I read the original post and through most of the pages and I didn't see anything for the Monsoon H/U bulbs. Anyone know what LEDs are needed for this?
I have my radio apart and am looking to order LEDs to replace.

I have a camaro and I want the leds (instrument cluster) to be the same color as the stock ones. Which would be best cool white, natural white, or warm white?

Did a quick Ebay search and found these. Don't know if they would be any good or not.
