Super Bright LEDs

Some of the multi LED/wide angle ones should do much better as dispersing the light more evenly so you dont have those hot and cold spots.

Yeah man...they should be equally red all the way through; looks like only the sides of each gauge are getting full lighting. Compare to factory Pontiac:

oh 194 is the gauges. I don't know what the HVAC are, but you replace them with standard 3 or 5mm LEDs

I know the HVAC's are 74's, but when I tried before to pull them outta the housings, they always @!#$ break! I was asking are you wiring them into the stock housings, or using some other connector to get them into the hvac unit themselfs.
