LED s14 gauge cluster bulbs. What do you use?

[az_240]

I've been through a couple sets of wide angle "hyper white" led bulbs in my 97' but always get a blotchy blue color.

^what I have now. It looks bluer and duller in person.

^anybody have experience with these 360* bulbs? Im wondering how white the cool white bulbs really are.

I'm looking for some bulbs that will give my cluster a crisp white color without looking blotchy... preferably with a clock bulb.

Post up what you have and please be specific.

[NINJASPY]

cool white=is about 6kelvin too blue imo.
leds wont do much. The design of the cluster bulb location makes the leds not light evenly.
Led needles on the other hand work pretty well.
those 360 lights are just multiple leds pointed at random directions.

You need wide angle leds that point forward.

I myself went for amber regular bulbs. They work ok.

[az_240]

Do you have actual experience with the 360s? They look like they'd work well and put out a lot of light. Any experience with the warm white? Not a fan of amber bulbs.

[DFWZenki]

I know what you mean. I have White LED's in my whole interior but my cluster is a little more Blue. They are bright and distribute light evenly. Got them from SuperBrightLeds.com. But i was hopeing for something a little more true WHITE. IMOA i wouldnt use "Cool White" if your going for a white look. The white ones are blue enough when used with a un-modified cluster. I hate amber as well. With you on that. I know our cars are 15 years old and all but they dont have to look like it. LOL.
Also did you change out the bulb for your clock too? It dosent look like the stock bulb.

I've been told there is a thin blue layer behind the cluster inside (see through plastic) that gives it the hint of blue. Ive been meaning to pull it apart and look but havent. Here is a before and after of mine.
The after pic looks pretty white but in person it is more Blue.
Let me know if you have any questions. Hope this helps.

[Kougeki]

Ooooooo! I like the bright white.

[NINJASPY]

I guess the 360 leds I got were shitty ones :(

But led needles are where its at.

Didnt mean to offend you on the Amber color thing. LOL. IMOA i dont really like it. If that is what you like than go with it. Thats what its about!
Never tried the LED Needles. Sounds pretty cool. Any pics of them?
The cluster is a little more blue in person. But the rest of the interior is actually that white. I only have my cell phone to take pics with. Ill try to get some different pics later.

[az_240]

^Nice. Wish I had the digital climate control. Did you replace those bulbs as well?
http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a229/livinglegendlll/ImportedPhotos00010.jpg
^here is my LED climate control. Was a PITA and looks like shit... just soldered in some leds/resistors in place of what was there. I want to eventually redo it with more bulbs so its not so blotchy.

Are those lights in the cluster cool white? I'm thinking about going with the 9 led for extra brightness...

Did you get the clock light too? Any pics of that? I want them to match.

Anybody have pics of the warm white bulbs?

[DFWZenki]

I replaced all interior bulbs with white LEDs. Climate control, Defog, Dimmer, Cruise Control. Everything. Clock Bulb is factory clear bulb. The LEDs i used in the cluster only had one option for white- they just listed as "white". (not being a smart ass, im serious).

The Warm White LEDs are pretty close to a factory "clear" bulb (not amber). I used the "Warm White" LED in my Dome light and its almost the same color as the "Clear factory Indondecent" bulb. (factory dome light is a 3175 bulb and i think the Clock light bulb is a 74. Have to double check on that).

By the way, the 9 LED bulbs will not fit in the Cluster housing. They are too long. Found that out the hard way. The ones i used are the 5 LED version and they are plenty bright and the right length. (they are on the brightest setting in the pic i posted).

[NINJASPY]

Its fine you don't like the amber thing.
Blue is the worst color for night vision.
White, well... look at that white... its TOO bright imo. It even washed out the color of the needles. I don't like the idea of a flashlight shining at my face at night.

Amber/red is the best color to preserve night vision, I don't want to look at my cluster only to look up and I can't see shit because my night vision got fucked because my bright ass blue/white lights blinded me.

Look at his "before" picture, notice how the blue head unit is producing a lot of glare/over-exposure/ouchies?

There is a reason why most companies only use amber or white. Look at bmw, almost everything is amber. Gauge cluster has amber/white.

[Ceepo]

I have the bulbs in the above pictures(post #4) and i love them no hot spots or anything... got them from superbrightleds.com or something, but as stated above make sure to use the 5 led ones, they work plenty fine mine are very bright... im going to do my a/c controls ect soon...

[rebornS14]

i need a/c control bulbs but they're tiny and i dont see replacements anywhere. LMK when you find some, i wants.

how manu wedge bulbs do i need to buy for the cluster and is there one for the clock i can buy or did that not have one?

[Ceepo]

I never did the clock but the whole cluster is 3 bulbs

[rebornS14]

ok thanks, in knew it was more than 2 but wasnt sure if it was 3 or 4.

Anyone use this dome light or know of any others like it? I found a few but they all look too blue to me... I'm looking for more of a warm incandescant white for the dome light similar to stock just much brighter.

I just placed an order for those 5 LED cluster bulbs in white along with some more LEDs for my climate control. Even got a white clock bulb #74... im just hoping it will match the cluster bulbs.

Thanks for the info DFWZenki

You can buy replacement bulbs for your interior lights(climate control,dimmer, and cruise buttons) at Radio Shack. Part #
LED bulbs, #272-1092 at Radioshack (http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103780&cp)


from this pic, where can i get the one on the bottom right so i can use it to replace the dead bulbs in my a/c and hazard, and defroster button.

I bought them from SuperBrightLEDs.com. Its under the "Component LEDs" section. They are 3mm White LED bulbs. You have to run resistors with them. I bought my resistors at Radio Shack, 5 pack for 99 cents! Here is a link i like to use to figure out what resistors you need with what LEDs: LED calculator for single LEDs (http://led.linear1.org/1led.wiz).

Its fine you don't like the amber thing.

The pic was taken with a Camera Phone. Also, the lights were turned all the way up to the brightest setting.
They are not that dramatic in person. You can also dim them if you think they are too bright but they are not that bad.

i have those installed. i will upload pics later tonight. they look decent. need to polish the plastic cover (with plast-x or whatever)for best results

[omgRWDgoodness!]

I need to replace my gauge cluster bulbs and two of the single 5mm LEDs I used for my climate controls to 3mm. Here's what my gauge cluster looked like before all the bulbs burned out (within a rather short period of time, too):

http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w302/P_Toms/IMG_0518.jpg

Sorry for the huge-ass picture. All bulbs & LEDs were purchased from www.DiodeDynamics.com (http://zilvia.net/f/www.diodedynamics.com). That SuperBrightLEDs site looks like they sell good stuff, I think I might try those next.

[mattro]

this is what i did why settle for just one color? im doing the same to my gauges as well, ultra light 2's

bought these bulbs from the local autozone ^_^

I remember I tried removing the film once and it was not coming off... its like it's painted on or something.

PMed you about the dome light.

how did you go about wiring up the resistor with yours?

[stinky_180]

wire it up in series with the led

[omgRWDgoodness!]

Make sure you solder the resistor inline with the POSITIVE (longer) end, or anode, to hook it up to standard 12v power.

Also, don't bother trying to get the film off the back of the gauge faces. I tried doing that by sanding the film off and only did the tachometer before I gave up because 1) the speedometer needle wasn't coming off, and 2) it doesn't make much of a difference. The light shines through only marginally brighter. Save yourself the time & effort, and the fact that it's damn near impossible to get your tach needle back on accurately so it reads the exact RPM.

That sucks. I was about to try it myself but i was hoping it would be easier. Thanks for the info.

About the resistor wiring. Let me try to make this simple.

You have a Positive lead (wires coming off the LED bulb) and a Negative Lead.
1)The Proper Resistor is placed between your power source and the Positive Lead on the LED bulb.
2)The Negative Lead is connected to your Negative connection (opposite post from resistor).
3)If no resistor is used they will burn out very quickly.

4)Below are some rough examples of LEDs with resistors. You should always solder your connections for the best results.

DFWZenki (http://zilvia.net/f/members/dfwzenki.html)

For your cluster, did you replace any of the indication lights? Like the turn signals/battery warning/oil light/etc? What kind of LEDs would replace those?

And for the Hazard/Defrost lights, did you use a 330 ohm resistor for you 3mm leds?

Also, I heard that you couldn't replace the light behind the gas gauge, because it always stays on due to current flow, or something to that effect

[afiser]

THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE PICS!

exactly what i wanted. thanks again.

one question tho, it seems so simple that im not sure about it. could you put the resistor on the 12v wiring going TO the button out side of the actual button? i know the fsm shows which wires are positive and which ones are negative going to the button. im just not 100% sure.

In my cluster, I only replaced the main 3 bulbs across the middle with the White 5 LED bulbs. Those will illuminate the whole face of the cluster. The rest of the bulbs along the bottom and such(check engine,turn signals....), these i left as the stock twist lock clear bulbs. Im not sure right now what the LED replacement would be. Pic for refrence:

For my 3mm White LEDs i used a 470ohm (4.7k-Ohm) resistor with each one. Part #271-1124 at Radio Shack.

For the Cluster I used the three 5-White LED bulbs.

For the Dimmer, Driver Power Window button, Cruise Control, and Defog switches i used the 3mm LED bulbs with the 470 ohm resistor.

For the Hazard switch i replaced it with the Radio Shack bulb:
LED bulbs, #272-1092 at Radioshack (http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103780&cp).

Not sure about the Fuel Gauge light thing. Its illuminated by the three main bulbs when you turn your lights on. At least on a Zenki S14 it is.

Any more questions let me know.

Funny you should ask. I thought about doing this myself but i was afraid it would mess up the switch signal or something, I dont know, So i just went with what I know and put the resistor at the bulb. Maybe ill try that with some spare parts sometime.

[afiser]

when i get my stuff ill test it out and see. plan on doing this soon. from what i saw in the hazard button tho, only two of the pins in the button actually go to the light itself (+ and - is my guess) the rest are for the function of the switch i believe and has nothing to do with the illumination of the bulb. so it should probably work.

has anyone succesfully changed the bulb in the auto window switch? i looked at it today and it seems the only way to get to the 3mm bulb would be to desolder :(.

Hard to see in the pic. But i used a 3mm White LED bulb and a 470ohm resistor in the original bulb housing.
This was a test run to make sure i had it set up right. It was right.
In the pic it looks like the resistor wiring is touching the board. But its just the angle of the pic. Its actually "floating" above it.

Is there still a little blue to the cluster though? Mine does a little.

By corner lights do you mean the turn signals under the headlights in the bumper? Or the small amber lights on the side?
Ive never tried them. Thought about using the 1156 White LEDs for my reverse lights to see if they are any brighter.

There is a very slight hint of blue but I do not mind.

I mean the small amber lights on the sides of the headlights... I think they are actually 194 wedge style bulbs. The stock yellow/clear bulb throws the nice kouki headlights off.
Was thinking about getting these

with either a white led bulb to match my headlights or amber led. I'll post pics if I end up getting them.

I am running 8000K HIDs. Im running "Cool White" LEDs (194 wedge) in the corners. I tried the "white" LEDs and it looked a little weird to me since the 8000k HIDs have a blue tint and the 194's were white.
If your running something like "stock", or 4300k HIDs it would probably look better.
I also thought about the Amber LEDs. Ive never seen them in anything. Might look pretty cool.

[az_240]

Did you go with the same bulb as what is in our clusters or did you get the taller bulb with more LEDs? My headlights are about as white as it gets so that "white" bulb should work perfect. I'll probably get a pair of amber bulbs as well to try it out.

[Future240]

Try clear corners for some other led corner options.

I would like to know if the 74-xHP or the 74-x works in the cluster, or if one is too long

[az_240]

I did in my pic above... that is the 74-x bulb... it's too blue and I want a white one. Get the 74-xHP in white and post up a pic of what it looks like

when you use leds you lose dimmer function right?

Sometimes at night on long trips i turn the dimmer down way low...lol

They have replacement twist LED bulbs for the climate control for anyone interested. The old method was to solder in LEDs with a resistor which was a PITA.
http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/store/index.cgi?action=DispPage&Page2Disp=%2Fspecs%2FNEO.htm
They are the NEO3 bulbs.

They will probably still leave hotspots since the stock setup with the light pipe does not work very well. I plan on eventually wiring up a climate control with an LED in each button.

[240sxvaj]

really? lol LED's are less than 1 dollar each.

Thats how broke i am lol! im broker than broke back mountain LMFAO!

$1? i seen most go for over $5 a piece. show me the site besides autozone lol!

This has been an amazing thread! Alot of the simple questions I had about switching my cluster bulbs have been answered! Thanks guys

[afiser]

one question tho, it seems so simple that im not sure about it. could you put the resistor on the 12v wiring going TO the button out side of the actual button? i know the fsm shows which wires are positive and which ones are negative going to the button. im just not 100% sure.

to follow up on this post

i put resistors on the illumination wire going to the buttons i changed to led's instead of putting it on the bulb and it seems to work totally fine. just put the resistor on the red with blue strip wire (12v illumination) that goes to the button and thats it. i put led's in my power window button (which was a bitch had to use hot glue to keep the led in place and still have power) and the defrost button and both buttons still function perfectly.

How did you get your cluster to look that bright? I used the blue LEDs from superbrightleds.com the single beam and the needles are dark.

So im about to purchase some LEDs for my cluster and i would like to do the climate control at the same time. has anyone found any drop in LEDs that will work well in the USDM climate control and not cause hot spots? if not are there any good bright regular bulbs that can be used instead?

I used direct drop in from superbrightLEDs.com but it has hot spots :( best way if you don't want hot spots is to do what DaPCWiz did with his and solder them..

here's a pic of the drop in's I used:

Instrument Cluster and Gauge Backlights - Super Bright LEDs (http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/store/index.cgi?action=DispPage&Page2Disp=%2Finstrument.html)

I used the NEOx wedge xHP and choose the 3mm size ones.

[Mister.E]

Damnit, those were the ones that i was gonna buy too. I guess ill just get some replacement bulbs and call it a day, i cant deal with hot spots nor do i care enough about my car to go through the trouble of soldering a bunch of LEDs in.

[joshls2]

just get some wide angle component leds w/resistors and wire them in. you might as well sense you have to take the whole thing apart anyway.

it shouldn't be that hard. eg. get 120º or 180º angle lights for the buttons and slider and a 360º for the blower speed knob. and if u flatten the dome top of the leds u'll get a way better light output to eliminate the whole hotspot issue.

heres a link for ya to show u what I mean: http://www.nissanpacific.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4029

[s14tan]

Anyone know how to fix the light for the window switches in a S14??

[ELECTRO]

Hey, this thread is absolutely great. Thank you all so much for your input. I've got a couple questions even after reading through the thread twice.

1. When replacing ONLY the 3 main bulbs on the back of the instrument cluster with these bulbs (T3-1/4 (#194/168) type bulbs with High Power SMD. Wide Angle LEDs radially mounted emitting 360 degrees. 12 Volt DC operation), do you need to wire in resisters or is it a straight plug and play.

2. When you change said bulbs out, does that also light the needles as well? I've seen the intelliglow needle kits. Are those special needles that have an LED mounted in them?

3. Is the HVAC led swap out without hot spots going to basically be a good weekend project down the road? It seems that it's a bit time consuming to go in and place several smaller LED's to get good coverage. Does anyone have tutorial pics on this process?

Thanks everyone so much for your help. I'm really looking forward to getting back to my S14.5 . I'm even seeing if I can get someone to convert over my AEM gauges to blue instead of the standard red. It's going to look baller!!!

[ELECTRO]

and if u flatten the dome top of the leds u'll get a way better light output to eliminate the whole hotspot issue.

Can you explain how to flatten it out? I would think doing something like sanding it down would dull the light output considerably. Do you mean by melting it down? Thanks.

I think he means sanding them down, the diffused light will spread more evenly.

Here was my cluster and Dome light


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v353/importdude/cluster.gif
That's how I want mine to look like! Sick!!

[J.bell]

On Ebay Look up "194 SMD LED", for the large lights in the cluster, and "74 SMD LED" for the small corner bulbs and clock bulb. Alot of the Ebay stores for bulbs have pics of what the output light color looks like, and the angle of projection. If you get the "carbus error free", they have resistors already in the bulb carriers and should retain dimming function. One of the US sellers has these bulbs in 10 pks, 30$ for 194's, and 15$ for 74's. The great thing about getting ten is if you have changeable bulbs in your boost gauge etc. , you can swap those with the 194 left overs so they match the cluster lights. Also make sure u get them from a US seller, I made the mistake of ordering from Kong Hong and they took a month to arrive. And ontop of that, they were'nt white SMD's, they were normal leds that had a blueish output with lots of dark spots in the cluster. And Im not waiting two months for an exchange.

[Dorifto Machine]

Thanks for the links and such.

Question: My time was showing up on my s14 cluster and now it doesnt. It still looks like the digitizer is dim/ lit, but is that the bulb that I need to replace for the digits on the clock to show up or is it a malfunction with the cluster itself ?

I dont think bulbs can fix that problem. Id say its a cluster problem. Bulb only illuminates the display so it can be read in the dark.

[Promise Land]

This thread has been helpful, so thanks for everyone that has posted. I looked at V-LEDS and superbrightleds.com (with a coupon code) for the options. I went with white on both options.

WLED-xHP5: LED T10 Wedge Base Bulb
Options: WLED-WHP5: Natural White -> bought 3

NEOx-xHP: NEOx High Power LED Instrument bulb
Options: NEO3-WHP: 3mm NEO3-xHP Cool White -> bought 3

I think the gauges will be a clear white, but the a/c lights may be a blueish tint. We'll see. Total with USPS shipping was $26.47 (after coupon code). The V-LEDS was about $28 with shipping (they make you buy pairs vs. individual bulbs).

I'll post the final pictures of before and after like others have done.

personally, like the above said, keep it bulb if you want it simple and good. going led took me a LOT of work.

So I swapped my cluster lights with no prob. I tried to swap the clock light and it doesn't work now, I pulled the led and put it back in 180* and still no dice. Put the factory bulb in and still didnt work. I'm guessing maybe my socket is bad even tho the light worked before I swapped it. The socket is discolored and the old bulb was pretty tight in there. Anyone else run into this problem?

I'm using those in my cluster. Had red before, and now I'm on white bulbs.

On a related note, for you other S14 owners out there - has anyone taken the cluster apart and found a way to remove the blue film behind the tach/speedo/etc? all my interior lights match perfectly (big win in my book), except for the damn cluster, it has a tint of blue. I wish I had a spare cluster around still, I don't know if the film can just be peeled off, or if it needs to be sanded off or what not. Anyone?

This thread helped a lot. Finished up my s14 with natural white from superbrightleds.

Cluster:
3x 194-NWHP5
1x 74-WWHP (warm white, natural white looks blue in the clock)

HVAC:
3x NEO3-NWHP

Optional JDM DIN gauge pod:
3x 74-NWHP

Dome light:
1x *3022-CWHP4-V2 30mm Festoon (went with cool white since they didn't have a natural for this bulb type)

Map light:
1x BA9S-CWHP5

While installing them I noticed that their #74 bulb is small enough to replace the tiny #37 bulb in the cigarette lighter ring. So I'm going to order a few extra.

No installed pics yet, my interior is gutted while I replace the floors then carpet.

Here's the NEO3 and a 74 since I didn't see many pics above.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180313/45c1aa48962f7ca09326b597a62217ef.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180313/58496e3390a85d9d66e38041c864caaa.jpg

I pulled a few of those switches apart to see what bulb they took. Looked like some tiny things with wires wrapped around contact points. I'd need some tweezers to install them I think.

Tweezers not necessary.
I wrote a review of these a while ago. Stellar stuff.

Hey thanks for the awesome review! How do they holding up? I personally have the LED’s in my car and they still lighting bright. My friends have it in Impreza’s and other Nissan’s as well.

I saw another review for the S13 LED switches. https://restomod.ninja/the-little-things/

Still working great.
