Show me your gauges!!! - Page 2

oldman_d · 08-11-2008, 08:15 AM

LED Specs:

5mm
10,000 mcd
Vf 3.2-3.6

Resistors that I used came with the leds when I purchased them, so I don't know the exact specs on them.

Those do look great but if you would have just replaced your OEM bulbs with Polargs you couldve gotten a much brighter more even display. Although, Polargs run about $15-25 a bulb I dont know how many are back there in the TL dash. I run Polarg on all small bulb places, like license plate, reverse lights, interior light in cars, dash lights it gives a BRIGHT bluish white glow. More like white 8k HIDs. Polargs are BRIGHT. I'll get around to replace my stock TL dash lights I been doing some other projects on it right now. The TL gauges are kind of embarrassing when my friends ZX10 pulls up with the 'floating' digi odometer and super bright backlit display.

Those do look great but if you would have just replaced your OEM bulbs with Polargs you couldve gotten a much brighter more even display, just for the fact LEDs dont 'glow' they shine a beam.

Where do you get the Polargs from?

Sam - not much good without a fuel gauge is it?

somewhere like a online carparts store. however youll normally find Polarg headlight bulbs or common 1157's etc.. If you want to replace say a small bulb like ashtray, gauge bulbs, interior lights get the bulb type and search for it on ebay. That's the easiet way. They are expensive now but 100% worth it. "hyperwhite" looks SO clean. Just an example of an online store below I have no clue what type of bulbs the TL gauges use, but Polarg does make every type of bulb.
