Pull out the cluster and see for yourself, instead of whining. You'll need to pull the cluster out anyway to change the bulb.

It looks to be either a T3 or T1 bulb from GE's site.

holy **** haha

you bumped your thread like 20 times in a day, calm down


honestly if you went to Advanced Auto they have a book on the bulb aisle that tells you.

If you did 2 seconds worth of googling you'd find it as well


If you removed the 4 screws that hold the cluster in and looked at the bulbs yourself you'd have found it.


Not everyone is going to baby step your hand through stuff............

Also as a heads up , the LED bulb replacement sites have it linked to the sylvania site that lists every bulb in your car.

Are they Sylvania 74's or GE194's?
Here's a run down of the Sylvania bulbs for the car:

I used some 194 LED replacements in my dash - look good except the LED's are very directional and have bright spots vs. the omnidirection of the stock bulb.

I have a 2001 accord v6, so your bulb sizes are the same as mine. there are 3 sizes example the speedometer has a left and right side bulb size t10, this is a large size. there are like 6 t10's on that guage cluster. next you have t5 which is a medium size, thers a ton of those in there like 12 or so. next you have the small size which is t3, which is only used for your straight line of D N R D4 D3 D2 D1 sets these are tiny. like 6 or so of em. I tried to replace mine with led, biog mistake, look like sh337 and half of them were not working because led has a polarity so you have to play with it. it looked like crap so i just switched back but i still need a t5 cause my odometer bulb is burnt out. good luck. all else fails buy the bulbs at honda at rip off prices or go ebay. remember led= sh337

also pay attention to watt size, here s t5 i found on amazon, i also found a 12 watt t5 which must be wrong, not sure if 7 watt is still too high or what

The T5 bulbs referred to on Amazon are not for automotive use.
