So i picked up some B8.3D's from Super Bright LEDs, Inc. and they are White in color. Heres my problem.

After replacing all the factory bulbs (least all 6 that light up behind and on top of the gauges) only the two high mount bulbs will work. The dimmer switch controls their brightness, but the actual bulbs BEHIND the gauges wont seem to turn on, none.

Does anyone know what might be causing this? I took them out and retwisted them in and no dice..

are the led's specifically made to replace those light bulbs in the cluster? if theyre not you might need a resistor, or theyre hooked up backwards

i assume you got the kind that are non polerized (sp) and did you have to solder anything when you did that.

paintballmaniac

actually, you just have to mess with them each has to be twisted in at a different angle...

BTW

I can confirm that all 3rd gens use these for gauge lights. plugs right in.
