White face gauges with red leds

I tried red LED's in the stick GT cluster, and they were so dark I couldn't see the instrumentation at night. The 5-way red LEDs I bought just didn't put out enough light, but the cool white ones did. I bought mine from superbrightleds.com, the WLED-x5 reds. However, I see they have new WLED-xHP5 bulbs that may be brighter. Be sure to look up the lumens, you don't want an LED that's not as bright as the stock bulbs. A lumen value of 2000 is good, too much lower and they won't be bright enough. You want as wide an angle as possible to light up the whole cluster, or you'll have bright spots and dim spots of light.

Here's the info on the WLED-5 bulbs:

You're welcome to try some other LEDs, just be sure to buy ones that say they fit the 194/168 type.
