[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 432626, member: 18789"] Hah, the idiot lights are the ones above the column. Turn signals, high beam, check engine, park brake and seat belt. Those are #74. I deleted the seat belt buzzer and light, so I needed two reds (parking brake & CEL), one blue (high beam), and two greens (turn signals). For some weird reason the PCM outputs a small amount of voltage on the check engine circuit when the the key is on. It’s not enough for a bulb to light up but an LED will light up dimly so a small ohm rating resistor can be used to waste that energy to keep the led off. The gauges and heater control all use 194s which is the same as a 168 except 194 is less wattage as a bulb. In the LED world 194/168 are effectively identical. They’re expensive but I buy all my LED bulbs from VLEDS. Have not had one failure, great color & brightness, overall no regrets with them. [/QUOTE]
