i want to get white leds for my gauges i cant stand the amber color. if someone could be a site or something or a pricing range on how much they'll cost that would be awesome. and is the soldering hard?

 

www.lc-led.com

depending on the color and how many you want changes the price but they roughly go for 1.35 each if you get less than 99. hope this helps good luck!

here is the ones i THINK you need, BUT CHECK THE FORUMS TO MAKE SURE.

anyone know where to find purple smd?

 

you may have to look on ebay.co.uk to try and get purple, there is a thread about PINK he said he has a link for the pink ones, he may have purple ones also. Check it out though

 

are those direct replacements? Plug and play???

 

how many WHITE leds do you think i'm gonna need? thanks guys for the quick responses. =)

 

I don't think they're plug and play more like soldering

 

yes they are soldering if you are going to do the gauge and HVAC control mod

BlackSandPtC - depends on what you wanna do. If you just wanna do all your gauges white with no other color then you are going to need 14 LEDs for just gauges. If you wanna do your HVAC controls also, all together you will need 30 LEDs

 

is there a good DIY on this? I am looking to do this as well but I am extremely lost

 

not to be mean or anything but people will jump all over you for this, there is a little red button at the top of your screen, its the search buttone, that will become your new best friend.

But here is the DIY for this and the HVAC controls:

I know i was searching an I only came up with this so far https://www.scionlife.com/forums/vie...light=led+swap

 

its in my post above yours

 

i know that reply was to u

 

nd4spd....i think i saw purple on my quest for the pink smds...but i can't find them. The only way i can find now is to go directly to a supplier in China. And you'd have to mass order. If you want that link, i'm in the process of finding it.

Man, if i wasn't a poor college student...I'd start up a store here in the US for all of the rare leds. It'd definately make a profit.

 

are these the same ones that i need ADRdesignco? would these work

Do most shops do these types of things? My fiance's brother owns a shop and asked me to print out the DIY for him but from how he was talking, he didn't have a clue how to do it.. even with the DIY.

 

BlackSand...i believe that is the same. It's the right size and everything....however, don't go off the specs listed on that. I've noticed with a lot of stores on ebay, they have a generic set of specs. And they have those specs for pretty much all leds even 3mm/5mm. But based off of the size, and look, i'd say they are the same.

amanda, i'm not sure a lot of shops do this type of mod, unless they have an electrician on their crew. But i'm sure there are SOME shops that do do this.

 

no alot of shops do not do this mod.
