Change Dash Color
Just have to keep in mind the stock overlay will tint it... Camaros have a blue tint and Birds have a red tint (hence yellow stock bulbs making them green and orange respectively).
I have 1 1998 Z and i tried the red led's but things looked kind of pink.....so..... I just replaced my gauge cluster with one from a 1998 TransAm and i am Happy now. I also tried the blue led's in my camaro gauge cluster but it just seemed real bright at night, I found it distracting.

Depends on color and if you use a single bulb or those multiple square patch looking ones. I used the single bulb.
I had gotten mine from superbrightleds.
Do any sponsors sell LEDs now? I see all LEDs are these square style now anyway, I don't see the ones I bought on that website anymore.

5 of these. They shine through the stock gauges better than the xHP6 bulbs. The xHP6 bulbs would be alright if you're going with white.
