Yea, I'm not giving up on the LEDs lol. I'll let you know how the new tri-power ones are when I get those in this week.
1. yes that is correct
2. The HVAC bulbs are 194's, and there are two of them. I have not tried to switch them to incandescent from LED's yet so I don't know if that is better, but judging from the improvement in the gauges I would assume incand. would be better than LED's in there as well.
Ok I went to Pep Boys and bought two red 194's to try out in the HVAC in place of my 5 way LED's, and once again the incandescents are far better. Where before the LED's left the blue or "cool" side of the heat dial completely dark, the incand. lights it up nicely as well as the rest of the symbols. I only wish I had ordered them from superlumination when I got my 74's because the red color is a little different. Hope that helped anyone thinking about ordering bulbs.
I wanna see someone get blue incadescent bulbs and do it first before I buy more LEDs. someone step up!

Hahahaha the damn blue incandescent bulbs were a friggin joke.. The 194's for the HVAC controls still made it look green and it was not very bright. The 74's for the gauges made it appear blue but they were VERY dull.. I have a few crappy pics that I'll post up later tonight.
If changing your gauges to BLUE, DO NOT USE INCANDESCENT BULBS!!!

Here are some pics (from my phone so bad quality..) Incandescent bulbs are on the left.
Yup, the gauges looked so dim, I didn't think they were on at all.
What a waste of 12 bux lol.
So, the blue tri-leds work?
