So i tenaciously decided to call back some more stores around town and the last store I contacted was Pep Boys. They actually had it in stock, but only 2 of them, but they can order more from the warehouse and they'll be ready for pick up tomorrow evening. This is awesome news, now I dont have to pay for shipping. Call Pep Boys if nobody else has it!
I just went to my local autozone and theyre were 4 in stock on the shelf (found em myself!) and i snagged em. Just ordered my LED's from superbrightleds.com . Ordered 4 of the 5wide 194's and 2 of the 74 wedge base leds. Woop!
Red car with blue lights...gonna look just like a Jetta! (thats the look i was going for!).
Looks good man, why didnt you change the HVAC bulbs?
Any one know how to do that with a 91 pontiac sunbird??? with the gauge cluster???
i think im going to pick up a 2000 gauge cluster from a salvage yard and im going to figure it out!! I want some blue sooo bad!! ill do the HAVC but that will just look weird with the stock gauge color
if anyone finds anything for the 2000 cluster ppppplease PM me
So the LEDs are bright enough to over come the film that was already on the gauges?
i'd like to know too on the 2000+ cluster, because a couple of my bulbs burnt out and i'd like to fix it as cheap as possible...i like the stock cluster!
Project Resurrection is in full swing!
These LEDs will be bright enough to shine through the green film?
why isn't this thread a sticky yet?
i wish i didn't have to go looking for it at the bottom.
please make sticky

HEY...those are my knobs! but be warned, I painted strategic parts of the diffuser chrome, so that's another reason they look silvery like that, "your milage may vary"
And I'd also LOVE to know how to do the LED's on the 2K's....I don't mind soldering at all, it's the "DON'T PULL YOUR NEEDLES OFF" thing that bothers me..except if I remember correctly, you can pull the rear board off w/o disturbing the needles or the needle motors...
Anyone have any updated info on the 2k color change issue??

Night function is hard to get a steady picture.
I know this might be a stupid question, but can I put a sunfire gauge assembly in my 97 cavy? What about the fact that my cavy is as base as it gets and my fire cluster is fully loaded, any input would be appreciated.
I think Mr JOhn Lenko posted how to do the 00+ LED change over sometime ago.... I thought I had it saved on my computer somewhere but i couldnt find it...... off to the search button to find it.
Has anyone used anything other than the 5 led refractor . I have the red ones but I have quite a few dead spots and yes the bulbs are seated properly. I just wanted to know if the single dome led would be any better since the stock bulbs are dome.

If you find it let me know..I've been though so many different versions of search strings its not even funny.
Search isn't so good when it doesn't give you the information you are looking for.
what's worse is when you FOUND a particual thread via seach, ask a question..and someone tells you to use the search button...

BTW, did my led swap in my cluster and hvac last weekend. It was a pita!! 30 min job and i luv em!!
I changed the gauge face of my 2000 cavalier to a black cat customs one. Broke two clusters and three sets of needles in the process. It's a PAIN in the ARSE. And I was careful as hell...
The write-up for it is long gone... I don't even have it on my hd anymore.

the domed LEDs are a focused beam, so the wont shine any where but the spot directly in front of where its pointed. the 5 LED refractor bulbs are the best ive seen yet, i have a red set in one car and blue in the other with no dead spots in either car. id pull them out and check and see if maybe one of the bulbs my be burned out.
