LED lights in gauges

Don't have any pics yet, but I purchased some red LED bulbs for my gauges. WOW, they sure look different, will take some getting used too, but they sure look cool!!! . I replaced the dome lights back in DEC. with red bulbs and now I have replaced all lights in the cab with red. The gauges are a little darker but easy to read once the sun goes all the way down. No annoying glare at night from the gauges and no reflecting lights from the oppisite window either.

Got the LED bulbs from itpdiesel.com Tell Dennis I said hello. they run about 2 bucks a bulb

Thats the same place I got my amber ones for my visor and cab lights. havent done the gauge cluster in LEDs yet, but I have put blue ones in there, I too like them cuz of less glare, easier on the eyes.
