LED dash replacement recommendations
Would like to replace all the old incandescent AD dash lights with LEDs. Are there any good ones out there -- good as in very bright and long life. Thanks in advance.

Re: LED dash replacement recommendations
Replace them with something from super bright LED, use a rheostat or inline resistors to dim to your liking.

Re: LED dash replacement recommendations
Sorry about that, I planned to get all the part numbers off my old cluster last night, but got tied up at work.

Re: LED dash replacement recommendations
This is great I have been hoping to do the same. I have looked at the link and I cant seem to figure out which would be the best replacement. So which part is it? Also would it be the same for a 1954 3100? Thanks!!!

Re: LED dash replacement recommendations
12 volt tape lights. I was playing around and did this awhile back. They're dimmable too.
