Gauge cluster leds (white)
These are custom built LED lights using 360 degree light despersion components. Unlike multi-directional LEDs these lights will actually give off perfectly even light from all sides like a incandescent bulb light is even despensed backward which is unheard of before in the LED industry. In short these are direct replacments for your incandescent gauge lights except brighter with a more vibrant color. I am looking for $20.00 shipping included or best offer.
Brand new stock light:
A bigger directional LED (90 degree) with a lower rated resistor (100 OHM 1/4W) (See how the light comes to a bright point at the top and the light halo is centered to the top of the bulb):
The 360 degree LED with a 680 OHM 1/8W resistor:
Make the judgment yourself. Unfortunately this light won't solve the current hot-spotting in our gauges however, they do not create new ones (As all other LED's do unless you create a whole circuit board) and are significantly brighter and give the gauge a nice blue hue. Here is how they look in the cluster:
(The hotspotting is not this bad in actuality but something about the camera hi-lights the hot spots. Also the guage needle and red sections of the tach are adequettely lit but don't show on camera.)
Finally this is what you are getting 4 lights (Not just the one pictured for the gauge cluster for full illumination:
Here a blub set up for a T5 wedge in blue. It looks different because no phosporhous is in the epoxy resin. The white ligh is nothing more than blue light that has been intensified with phosporhous.
I am looking for 20 shipped anywhere in the U.S. obo. P.M. me if you are interested.
Here is a pic in blue light for reference:

If you are talking about the lighted pic thats the point it look like a incandescent bulb except brighter and a better color. The camera makes all of the light seem more yellow/orange see the actual incandescent bulb up top and see the obvious difference. I'll get another light pic up tomorrow.
