Did you use the single or multiple led bulbs? I just got mine and they have 4 led`s per bulb

Mine had 5. 1 at the tip and the 4 around the square "bulb". Essentially light emiting from the diodes every way but in the direction of the socket. They look great.

I`m glad to hear that I will be doing mine this week, I would have already been finished by now but I got the wrong engine harness, so I am waiting on the right engine harness to hook the dash harness to.

How many did you use? I just got my harness today and unless I am mistaken it takes about 20 bulbs and at 8 bucks a pop for leds I am going back with stock bulbs.

where did you get your harness and what year is your car? is the harness stock or aftermarket, or more heavy duty?:thumbs:

I am replacing the dash, heater and engine harness. I got them from Wilcox. I got my LED`s from a place called Superbright LED`S. My car is a 73 and all 3 harnesses had been really chopped up over the years. My LED`S will plug right into the bulb socket just like the old incandesant bulbs will. I got all my LED`S for about 35 bucks and for less heat and current draw I figured they were worth it

would that 1895 led work in the heater a/c unit??? it was always so dull.. anyone tried one yet?

When I get the dash back together I'll put up some pics.
Just curious if you have pics with the blue LEDs in your dash?

1973 dash light question
 
I am replacing interior lights only with LED, will this effect my turn signals and hazards flashers since I am staying with the incandescent bulbs on the exterior? Or do I need to stay with incandescent for the interior signal lights as well
