21804, Where to find actual indaglow blue light bulbs?
Posted by mitsudsr, May-07-02 10:26 PM
I bought some blue light bulbs from Auto Zone yesterday and insalled them in my autometer guages. Well they turned out more like a green color and don't match my rev. indaglow dash. Where can I find actual BLUE indaglow lights that will turn out BLUE and not green.
Thanks for any help,
Patrick

well, there is no actual indiglo bulb, indiglos are the thin sheat of electroeluminesent (?) plastic, the only thing that would come close would be a blue LED

finding anything to match the indiglo is going to be near impossible.. i have replaced ALL my interior lighting with blue leds and its obvious they dont match.. i have debated this topic for awhile and to the best of my knowledge your just stuck like that.. but the leds will match closer then blue bulbs

Where can I find the blue led lights? Are they at the auto parts store? Will they fit in my guages? Sorry for all the ? but I don't know anything about the led lights. If I can find them I will use them to match closer.
Thanks,
Patrick

Yo I went to radio shack an all they had was the small led's they don't carry the jumbo size. He said try circut city but that is like an hour away. Will the little ones ommit enough light or do I need the big ones.
Thanks again,
Patrick

Yo man I have to say that looks dope. How hard is it really to do? Can this be done in a simple weeked? Even with the bad pic it looks tight as hell. I might try to do that this weekend since I'm not going racing.
Later,
Patrick

as long as you have basic wire/solder skills and know how to take apart that area of the dash you can do it a few hours.. i did the whole center part one evening.. the only reason it took me as long as it did was figuring out the best way to do the rear wiper switch.. i just finished the left side of the wheel (mirrors, fogs, etc) in an hour or so.. if you need more help let me know..
