DAMN this is a confusing deal... Let's make this post a "Things we've seen before" post. Lets put up links and shit for everything.

FOR SURE Post these links

The write ups. (Gauge Cluster/ HVAC controls)
The parts list. (Gauge Cluster/ HVAC controls)

And for the record... What are the #74 bulb/LED thingys everyone is talking about?!

Are they a bulb... And LED? What the fuck?

What are they to?? the gauge cluster.... The HVAC controls...

Lets get this all out for us "stupidheads" so we can "get er done"

Here is the link for the "how to" and the parts list.
http://www.geocities.com/hondahater21/LedHVAC.html

The #74 LED's are for the bulbs behind the Instrument Cluster(speedo/tach area). The bulbs behind the HVAC, A/C, Cruise, Cigarette lighter are all smaller than #74 and i don't know what size. You are just goint to have to use the LED's you get from radio shack and do pretty much the same thing you did with the HVAC.

Here is a write on changing the A/C button.

i did this and instead of soldering the resistor onto the green wire, i just put it right on the circuit-board. I did have to cut part of the "legs" of the LED and the resistor.

The defroster button was a little harder, but i also soldered the LED and the resistor to the circuit board.

Now i just need to change the cigaretter lighter and Cruise control area.

Good luck!!:thumbsup

those pages dont mention the actual part numbers or specifics of the leds or the resistors.

the top one does, to get the resistor # just click the picture and read it off the box. the LED is a 2700mcd blue one.
