i just installed the SR gauges (yes, i took my APC ones out finally :-P) but the color is more white .. i want it to be blue.
so in my quest to make everything on my car blue, im looking for the size of these bulbs so i can replace the stock ones with blue ones. before i try leds i'd like to try this, because i think since the text is already blue, putting a blue bulb behind it might actually make it blue..never know though----might end up doing leds anyway.
looking for a place online to buy the blue replacements, auto parts stores don't have blue.

It's listed somewhere, but from memory...
You need about a dozen 73/74 bulbs, get them WITH the twist in bases as the OEM bulbs can be a royal PITA to take out of theirs.
You need about 5 194 bulbs.

sbleds.com now has some wide angle leds that look like they will work perfectly. its like weld-5 or something. search the forums for it, we had a topic about them. fonseca used them and they turned out great.
