Does anyone know what size bulbs go into the gauge cluster and how many? I know it's either 194's or 168's, amber colored and I'm not sure if a specific size has to go into the cluster or are they interchangeable? Does anyone have a recommendation on a bright amber bulb that I should use?

How hard is it to take the cluster out to change the bulbs? This is the first time I'll be messing with it.

The reason I'm asking is because the cluster lights in my R are not that bright. They have always been like that, and when I drove my friends R they were a lot brighter than mine.

THANKS in advance!!

Just a bump to see if someone can tell me how difficult it is to take out the gauge cluster.

 

Piece of pie.

put strg column down

two screws for the hood

pull hood loose from the bottom just above the strg column

three screws for the cluster

flip down and pull the sockets out

 

Thank for the info bro! for you!

 

You do not need to get amber bulbs because the cluster itself is orange.

There are three main backlighting bulbs. The bulbs are clear as stated (the back of the guages are painted).
