#20310, "Gauge Cluster Lights"




          

I'm going to buy white gauge faces and I found a site with blue gauge cluster bulbs. Are these the same kind of bulbs behind the Cruise Control, Heat/AC, and Rear Defrost panels or are those a different kind? I want all blue lights? Is this hard or pretty easy?

I bought some White Face Gauges (7 Color Indiglo - Blue or Green)

Looks Awesome. I have it at Blue and its really bright. At red lights people look over and stare at it. There's seven setting for changing the colors (Bright/Medium/Dark Blue/Green)

Cost me $35.00 on Ebay. Install it was so simple. All you do is place these on top of the stock ones. No need to take of the needles are anything and when you put the black cover/frame back on - it hold the gauges in place (Very firm and tight)

Took me 10 minutes to do and the power wire does to the Parking Light wire under the steering wheel (Green w/ White Stripe).

Hope that helps. There's also direction on how to install these on the home page in the Mods section.

I don't really have any problem with the gauge face, but the red lights that are behind the gauges, are they the same kind of bulb as what's behind the Heat/AC, Cruise, and Rear Defrost panels? I want to chance those bulbs to blue?

I'm not 100% sure because I haven't messed with the Gauge cluster, but I have done the cruise, and all other buttons and the HVAC.

The HVAC uses a 5mm bulb covered in an orange sleeve to color the HVAC. Here is HondaHater's write up on how to change the HVAC:

All the other buttons use a 3mm (T-1) bulb with an orange sleeve as well. I replaced all those with T-1 sized blue LEDs.

Hope that helps some.
