I have a '97 Valk Tourer and one thing that I've noticed is the neutral light is dim in bright daylight. I am guessing there is an LED replacement for the indicator lights. Does anyone have the part number and source? I have used superbriteleds.com in the past and like them. Just need some guidance on what to order for the Valkyrie.

Well I see you made it.  Grin https://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/instrument-cluster-gauge/194-led-bulb-5-led-miniature-wedge-retrofit-car/199/ I put these in this winter in white. They were a bit snug going in. Greatly improved night time visibility. Welcome to community.

Harry, double check the small wires at bottom of tube to be sure they are aligned properly. I installed one and had to remove and realign the wire then worked good. Check everything before reassembly.

@Roidfingers , I think what you are saying is polarity matters when installing the LEDs. Thanks.

More that the wires can be bent over to the side and not make contact when installed. You will see when you get them.

Good to see you here Harry, how do you like the Valk so far?
