i'm going for a softer blue look. are you saying the white led's won't do the job? I really like the picture of your gauge cluster in your first post of your DYI

Oh, the white should be fine if you keep the diffusor like the first pick. It's just a slight difference but white is a color where it is either white or not. For that, it should be fine.

Yeah it was my accord when i still had it, i got the bulbs from ledautomotive.com then i had to clear out the paint on the needles using cotton swabs with paint remover or acetone might work too. And just like what everyone says here removing the cluster is the easiest part to do.. :thumbsup:

ok so all I have to do is get the 194 and 74 bulbs, take out the cluster and take out the bulbs and then just replace them with the led ones right. I know how to take out the cluster and all that I just thought that maybe i had to do something besides just replase the bulbs to be able to put the leds on.
