I want to change the LEDs in my 2000 TL to blue instead of the dull green that is stock. Such as the digital clock, ac, and radio. Has anybody done it before or know how to do it?

 

I did my last week. tried the blue theme after a while it become too distracting and hurt my eyes. so I change to white instead,. much better for the eyes on long drive. now if i can just find my camera ,

 

how hard was it? and how much did it cost?

 

Number and size of bulbs needed?

 

very time consuming for sure. cost wise probably $20 or so for led and resistor

I didn't buy replacement bulbs. I took out original bulbs and solder in leds and resistor. (cheaper alternative) just a lot of patient putting this it since they are very small and very little room to work on.

here is another option, at least for everything but the radio, that has to be done as stated above. I suggest taking some nail polish remover to the back of the gauges before you put it all back together to remove the tint on the back of the numbers

 

From what ive read it goes like this
6 T4 Led Bulbs 5 for climate control and 1 for the clock
9 74 type Blubs for the Cluster and Odometer
As for the ac display and the bottone (cruise controll sunroof)
I belive they are T1 leds you need 4 to do the display and roughly another 6 to finish up the lights in the rest of the bottons im just waiting on my order and ill be doing this in the next week or so

 

6 T4 Led Bulbs 5 for climatecontrol and 1 for the clock
9 74 type Blubs for the Cluster and Odometer
As for the ac display and the bottone T3 Bulbs i did my whole dash for less that $35 beasts paying close to 100 for the kit

 

where can i buy the led lights for the whole console (speedometer, odometer, climate control, radio, shifter, etc...) and whats the better brand? let me know thx

 

Theirs acouple of places look more towards the beginnig of the thread theirs couple companies other members use. I sourced mine from a guy in VA and a Company out of hong kong. Cost me about $35 to do my whole dash and cluster
