LED dash bulbs

I have LED's in my dome light and the 2 footwell lights which are all a huge improvement over stock.

I meant to direct that last part at everybody. I have LEDs in both trucks for dome lighting, the difference is night and day. . .

Went and took pics of the Cutlass interior. I have white LED's for dome, map light, and kick panel bulbs. Mine are Sylvania and picked up from Walmart cause they had them cheap at the time, but what 565bbchevy used are fine as well. I have blue LED's in my automated gauges, and have my pioneer head unit matching them. It looks real good at night. Stupid check engine light on grrrrr, the ECM doesn't like my cheap knock sensors. I'm not pulling an intake to change those when the engine runs great. Gratuitous interior pic dump....

Scott,
That's one well lit interior. You can't miss the readings on those gauges. 👍😉
It looks great, man.

Could you recommend a source with part numbers? This would be for a Cutlass with the high lighting package and dome lamp with reading lights.

I also did the dash light upgrade to the 5 SMD from Superbright LEDs. They are a bit on the pricey side but are dimmable, not polarity sensitive, and come with a 3 year warranty. I recently had one of the bulbs that were "Trial" bulbs in the license plate lights on my Super Duty fail and they replaced it no questions asked. Below are the before and after on my Monte Carlo's. Yes I also did a gauge swap on the 79 Monte Carlo. I used the Cool White bulbs on both. Their drop down menu allows you to type in the make and model to find just what you may need.
Super Bright LED's is also running a 10% discount on their site at this time.

The before pictures you need to turn the lights on. 😉

I bought all of mine off Ebay from a couple different vendors a few years ago I just matched the number of the incandescent bulb to a LED replacement but since most are not dimmable and I tried different styles and LED counts to play with brightness and I have full sets of yellow, blue ,red and green so I could see everything thing lit up in that color before deciding, the Ebay ones are super inexpensive so I would buy 10 or 20 packs.
Here is just a sample of pricing with a quick search.
$7.99 for 20 LED lights
