Can i see some of you guys and gals cluster with the red led? Planning to change my cluster to red too but i wanna see how it looks first. Any pics can help.
Post ur Red Led Cluster - 6G Celicas Forums

That's with LEDs...really ugly because the light is dispersed differently due to the LEDs.
And that's with red type-194 bulbs, which I recommend.

So the first pic is with red led and the second pic is with red bulbs? I like the second pic. So the bulbs are 194 bulbs and not 194 led for the second pic right?

here is my try with red painted bulbs:

problem is, that temperature of bulbs is really high and paint I use crozzled so after few days color was more pink than red
. So use heat resistant transparent paint is necessity. Then I used common LEDs (like this one bellow)

...gauges looked exactly as Coomers.
thats my experience...

oldie but a goodie...using red 194s, red led come out too dim
I used to have 194s they we'rent as bright as my LEDs are.
This is how they are now, but this is a crappy picture, they are much better looking then that.

will the 5-led matrix ones fit into the cluster?

My blue ones did and they worked the best of any LED bulbs out there. Some people that have gotten them recently say that they can't get them through the back so they take the actual gauges out and put them in that way.
However, Since there are red bulbs as an option you might as well use them. I only went with LEDs because blue incandescent bulbs look like complete sh!t.

i already have leds but they're not as bright as i want them to be. so i guess i'm upgrading to the matrix leds.

So let me get this straight....use 194's red bulbs instead of 194's red leds? Red bulbs turn out better then red leds?

this is what mine looked like with white original white bulbs, and red lense tape on the back of my numbers. Looked ok but i wanted brighter, when i got White LED's it came out worse. So i took them off. Hopefully i get get them right someday lol.
kool...thanks for everyone's input.
