Regardless if you put new bulbs in your dash/gauges they will not be much of an improvement with visible at night. I tried several 194 bulbs some claiming to be brighter than others but in the end, no diference.

I resorted to swapping out all of my bulbs with LEDs (direct swap) which resulted in about a 300% improvement in brighter lights and visibility. Keep in mind they are much more expensive. I spent about $80 replacing the bulbs in my dash, courtesy and dome lights. No regrets. I went to superbrightleds.com (http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-b...gi?product=CAR). Great over-the-phone tech support.
