RE: Replace stock dash lights with white LED's?
If you're picking up the ones like they have at an auto parts store, just make sure you get the color you want. I think most of the interior bulbs are either 194's or the smaller 74's.

ALRIGHTY get this
i went into radio shack and asked the guy for 50 white LEDs and he said it would be $206.
SO i bought some on ebay for $8.20 and that will take care of the light above the back seat, the ones in the mirror, and the 2 little side lights that are above each door handle.
so those are taken care of
BUT stan ill need help with the ones in the dash, cause i really like that. i was thinking about getting a electroluminescent gauge overlay, but i heard the power inverter thing is really sensitive and they burn out so i think it would be good just to replace the lightbulbs with white LEDs

I got mine of eBay. They are 194 replacements. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/10-x-...em190212354732
These are similar to what I bought, if not the same. Before you seal everything up after replacing them, make sure they work. If they don't light up, flip them around. Most come on when you turn the headlights on. Three do don't so don't worry. The three I'm talking about are the the two turn signals, and the bright light indicator. Don't forget the gear selector indicator if you have an auto, also the HVAC panel. All of those are the same bulbs as the ones in the door (74). The light in the glove box is 194, as is the license plate light. Only ones I need to replace to have everything matching are the foglight switch and headlight switch bulbs. Only reason I haven't done them, is they need to be soldered into place.
