mines pretty subtle. but i think i will be very happy with it. Im new to this site and was actually pretty lucky i ran into these with the money to buy them right away. glad i got in on the last purchase of them. i might have had to beat the dog if i didnt, lol. PETA members it was only a joke! dont come protesting at my house. i value my dogs life more than most peoples, is that bad?

Here's mine, reposting to make questions easier to answer.
My white needles came in and look great! I'm not sure what to do about lighting though. I want to ditch the incandescent bulbs and go with LEDs. Anyone have any input in regards to color? I'd like to order these ahead of time for when my overlay comes in.
Also, what number of bulbs are required for a complete instrument cluster bulb swap for a '94? I've only found the number for the LS cars.

Alright man I will warn you its a ************ to swap out the Incandescents to LEDs
on the 93-96 clusters . You have to manually solder on 2-3 strands of copper wire
for each terminal of the LED , which leaves you with pigtails that you solder onto
the connector the LED sits in . VERY time consuming . Heres a list of what bulbs
I used for my full LED swap on my cluster ....
5-Red 5 way LEDs - For Indicators , Check Gauges , Brake , Etc.
5- Amber 5 way LEDs - For Indicators , Low Oil , Service Engine Soon , Etc.
1-Blue 5 way LED - For High Beam Indicator (You can choose any color but make sure its a 5 way)
7 - Cool White WLED-HP6 LEDs - For Cluster backlighting
2- Green WLED-HP6LEDs - For Turn Signal Indicators
If you have any other questions just let me know . Not many people have done
the 93-96 clusters and Ive done quite a few
PS: PM me in you want to know where I got my LEDs from (non sponsor)

The sockets from superbrightleds do NOT work with 93-96 clusters . The contact patches
do not line up with the solder points on the board of the cluster . You cannot find 97+ cluster
socket bulbs without the cluster either . 93-96 clusters have more bulbs/sockets than 97-02
clusters do as well .
