F.S. 194 LEDs PLEASE LOCK ! - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #53237 139 posts Started by Culpable04
as the tittle says, I have 194 LEDs in Red, Blue, Green, White, and Amber, they are the 5 small LEDs in one bulb, to give an even light output. here is a picture of how they look

I installed white ones on my cluster with needles painted red, here are my results

the price for this LEDs is US$7.00 shipped for one pair, any color US$13.00 for a 4 LEDs ( have to be sold in pairs )

Pictures could have been a lot better but the excess of experience didn't allow me to get better results rolleyes.gif

these look really nice in the gauges guys and it's really an easy mod to do.
i had some but the LED stopped working so i switched to some polarg bulbs but i do miss that bright blue glow.

Call me a traitor! See if I care. ;)
I have enough for everyone on the site and left over, these LEDs are brand new. I'm gonna take pics of them ( all colors ) today when I get home.
this is not a debate thread.
if your not interested in buying from stevenson, dont post.

pictures added !

remember that my needles are painted red, so the colors will not glow through them easily
do the green led's end up looking brighter or darker then the stock 194 bulbs?

to me they look a brighter but I haven't had stock bulbs for a while. give me till Sunday, I'm gonna meet with a few members I'm sure someone should have stock bulbs so I can take a picture with the same camera and compare, or I can even install the green one back in mine so I can compare them with theirs. I don't wanna just say YES and then look like a dumb@$$ lol

Is the brightness of these "bulbs" adjustable like the stock bulbs? With the rest of the instrument lighting?
Also pm'ed back but thought this might be an interesting question to more people.

you just have to put it in on a slant..
like Kerosene said, they go in slanted, no need to modify anything, the brightness can be adjusted just like you do now, nothing chances except the color tongue.gif

Takes two of these in the gauges, two '74' leds and one '24' bulb (24 is bigger than 74/smaller than 194).

that's what i'm using in my SS-III. just didn't want him to be disappointed when we tell him that he needs two 194s, he orders them, then realizes he needs 3 more bulbs AFTER he takes his dash apart. Oh, and a 74 can be used in place of the 24, but i would advise the 24. i've only seen them at superlumination under 74 bulbs (their prices suck, but only place i've seen them)

so,can u tell me how many of wich i need to buy from him to make everything glow evenly and have it all done and over with , this s**t confuses me
3 of what he is selling... ^^ thats all ya need... you will have 1 extra for future if it blows out...
your best bet would be to find someone who has a GT and done the mod, and see what they did. the gauges may be different between the models. kerosene may have only used 3 194s. i had to use 2 194s, 2 74s and 1 24 for mine. the 194s in mine are for the tach and half of the speedo, the 24 for between the temp and fuel gauges, and the 74s for the top of the temp and bottom of the fuel gauges. may be different in the GT's.

How To

EDIT: a lot of LEDs are polarized, if they don't work the first try, turn them around in the connector (black thing), then they should work.
