Led's in dash

[99blue_silverado]

Have yall done this? I did it and they started flickering on me. I couldn't figure it out but then i remembered led's don't need alot of voltage, so if your turn the dimmer all the way down then back up to when they come on they stop messing up!

There's a couple people that have replaced the lights as well as some who have put led strips to light it up.

I just did the led blubs and made the needles blue, I didn't even think about doing a led strip. I'll have to remember that

Did you install resistors on the positive leg of the leds before you put them in?

Mine can be on the brightest setting with no issues.

 

[99blue_silverado]

No I didn't do anything but put 194 blue led's in. I might go back later and install resistors, but for now they work with it on dim.

I also need to figure out how to turn my headlights off. The 99's don't turn off with the override switch

Oh right I forgot 99-02 just takes 194 leds.

And check here for disabling your auto headlights: http://customgm.com/showthread.php?t=6401
