Curious, do the 98 standards not have illuminated gauges? Mine aren’t. Was wondering if the bulbs were out, or if there just weren’t any in there.

Thanks

Mine were very dim, could only see them when it was complete dark out. Just changed to LED bulbs and they are much brighter!

Cool, just wanted to ensure they had them before I went digging. Any suggestions for LED’s?

I just got a pack of 194 LEDs off Amazon, just put them in this morning so time will tell on longevity.

Those should be fine, I had to push mine in really firmly into the rubber boot, also remember since they are a diode they will only work on way. So if you put it in and nothing happens just rotate it 180 and try again  cooldude

Just a reminder, if you decide to use them in a vehicle, make sure they’re dimable.
They work great on the bikes.
