      They should be the same as your dash bulbs. Did you use LEDs or regular bulbs? Can you post pics, cuz I'm hoping to change mine to orange w/ LEDs. I wanna see how they look, even though I've got the 09' hatch with the sedan cluster.

      i have to get them off my iphone but that should only take a second... they are when i was driving so they might not be perfect but i LOVE the effect..i went with the bulbs not the LEDs just because i didnt wanna worry about spotting.. also did the front grill hack job.. not see well but it works great for me

      didnt do the ODO switch because i forgot the bulb number so here it is m8

      Are they pretty orange in person? They look a little dull whitish, probably just the photo. I'm gonna do the LED anyways, we've got no sun here for 8 months outta the year so they need to be as bright as possible. So are all the bulbs for the dash, hvac controls and the dimer switch the same? 194 or 74 bulbs

      i would say they are pretty impressive and work great with the dimmer... its A LOT more orange than the pic.. the phone has a high white balance for dark pics...the 5 tach and speed lights are 194s the ODO light is a 74 and from what ive read the HVAC are 194s as well...8-#194 lights and 1-#74 light...

      correction.... 7- #74 bulbs and 5- #194 and that should cover you on all HVAC and ODO speedo and tach...
