Dash lighting

[hayhauler71]

I have read many posts about people wanting brighter lights in the dash cluster. I have herd of people replacing the #194 bulbs and installing #168 to make the cluster brighter and also spending some cash on led,s. Well I decided to do a little research on wedge base bulbs and the number of the bulb is #17177. This is a newer bulb that is used on some import cars and trucks and also the Ford vehicles and is the same size as the others.

This how it compares to the others

#194 puts out 2.5 cp

#168 puts out 3.0 cp

#17177 puts out 4.0 cp

So if you want just about double the light output use the #17177 bulbs and you will be amazed. I paid $4.90 for 10 bulbs and was one of the best upgrades I did.
