Dash light conversion
Hi everybody,
I want to replace my dash lights with blue led. Some of the lights are burned out. I don't want to replace all the lights with blue, just the gauges. I've seen some websites offering the led's. Just wondering if anyone has done the conversion, what leds they used, where they got them. And, what about the green film?
thanks,
walt

What year truck?
A lot of the older trucks have red needles and a green backing color, using anything but white or soft white just won’t look good and you won’t even be able to see the needles.

Larado would be a Chrysler product, not Ford. Maybe you meant Lariat.
Anyway, you’ll still have those issues. Red needles will not show up much at all with a blue led. I’d do 6000k white leds.
