Someone needs to make a kit. The big illumination LEDs with new screw bases (if needed) and all the smaller warning lights with new screw bases. Great video!
Great video I was looking for a tip on why my LEDs aren't working, I'm going to try putting them in the other way! Thanks. Hope this works they weren't cheap!
You get better results if you peel the green film from behind the the indicators. Under the green film is must clear plastic, so you’ll have more of a vivid blue coming through. To do it, you’ll have to take the cluster apart to get to it.
Right on man. Would you know if there are any trails out your way that are rated 3-5? The ones I know of are 6-10. My big ole truck won't make it through without getting tore up.
Bryan Johnson there is definitely some gnarly trails out here. look up hwy90 rim road on google maps. it has some bad spots but its perfect for my little f150. honestly theres a mountain southeast of montrose called buckhorn.. bit of a rough ride in a stock truck but the views are breath taking.
I did this in my 96 then sodered the pwr window and lock buttons air bag and cargo light and head light switch was t5 along with HVAC control I should make a vid If u want to see let me know looks great . Good job!
My 94 Burb has an intermittent 'no spark no gas' problem. I tried to read the codes and the CHECK ENGINE bulb was burnt out. I had a few read and blue T10 (194) LED bulbs so after watching this I pulled the dash. Then I realized I need the smaller 74/T5 bulbs. Also, on mine the bulbs do not come out of the twist sockets. So I ordered T5 LEDs and both size sockets from Amazon. I had to install and then rotate a few times to get the polarity right. The right turn indicator evidently pulled too much current and burnt the circuit. I ended up soldering a wire in to fix it. I got all the warning lights working eventually. The T10 illumination LEDs that I got made tiny spots on the dash instead of the light spreading out across the gages. I ended up leaving the stock PC194 bulbs.
Thanks man I have a 94 K5 Blazer with the same setup and I've been trying to find a vid that explains how to tear the dash apart and replace them,until now thanks @Bryan Johnson
Ethan Templeton Glad to hear it helped. Check out the video on how I did the heater/AC control if you are wanting to change those to match. If you have any questions ask away. 👍🏼
Ethan Templeton I haven't made a vid on how to change those but it's easy. All you have to do is unscrew the shifter ball and take out the two screws holding the cover. Id have to double check the bulb type but I'm pretty sure they are 194. There are two of em.
Don’t really get why but mainly only the needles are lighting up. All of them are on but they aren’t penetrating to see them through the numbers but they look very bright everywhere else. Should I take it apart and take of the film inside the cluster?
I’ve been meaning to do a how to video on how to do that. I’ll get around to it soon hopefully. There is a little process to doing it. First thing, with the engine cool, turn the key on and take a picture of the needle positions. Take the trim piece off, then the clear face, and then pry the needles straight up with a fork or something similar. Turn the key back on and put the new needles on in the same position as in the picture. Don’t put the clear face on yet. You might need to do some adjusting. Take it for a drive and make sure everything reads right. Once everything is good then you can put it all back together. Hope that helped. 👍🏼
@@BryanJohnson81 "come on man!" You killing us. Maybe at least put in the description which ones you suggest for that. Thanks. By the way, how much did it sell for?
I was just wondering where you got your led lights from and what kind are they. I have a ‘92 full-size blazer and am wanting to do this to my gauge cluster
I have a 91 with the old 180* dial cluster Instead of the needle style Love it actually. Buuuuut my truck never had the head unit in it. Only a delco tuner in the dash. It had three seperate plugs into it. Instead of one consolidated harness plug Any idea on a wiring harnes that will just plug into these existing connectors for an after market stereo....
Is it true that there is a film on the panel that makes it look green with the stock lights? If so how do I remove that? Don’t want everything looking like a blue/green color.
I just purchased a 89 C1500 with a standard transmission, but it has the old moon cluster with no tachometer. Are these new clusters with the tachometer a plug and play option? Or is there more to the process in order to fit the cluster and get the tachometer working?
I have a 94 Silverado and only my needle pointers and my gear box light up, I’ve tried to turn them…but it does not seem to work lighting up the rest of my gauge
Ok I was making sure because I have a 94 Chevy Silverado c1500 and I was thinking about doing the same thing but making the range selector green but it doesn’tSound like I can correct?
I have a 92 gmc and have a different cluster. The one with the white roll up bars if that makes sense. Same layout? And can I change the climate control lights to blue too?
Bryan.. Thanks for the video.. Great info. I had a problem with my 1992 Silverado yesterday. I was driving with the headlights on and noticed a small amount of smoke rising from the left top part of the dash.. Next thing I noticed the headlights flickered and then went out. All other lights are working (dome, parking, blinker, brakes).. The Just wonder if you had a clue or guess what the problem could be. thanks so much.
@@BryanJohnson81 Thank you Bryan.. I will check the headlight fuse and hope that replacing that is the problem.. The wire grounding problem might not be as easy to fix. If you think of anything else, let me know. Thanks again for your help. I hope someday I can return the favor.
@@BryanJohnson81 I will start with the fuse.. If its not that, I have to check the wires.. It is a shame. My truck is build like a tank .. and I have had only very minor problems with it for the past 20 years. Thanks again and may Jesus alway be with you!!
besides the 6 bulbs you replaced, were all the other lights T10 (aka 194) bulbs? Like the ones for all the brake, engine, battery, turn sig, high beam, etc. Or were they smaller T5 (aka 74) bulbs? And do you know if you could have used the stock - twist lock - bulb holders? Or were the stock bulbs glued into the holders so you had to use the new holders?

@@BryanJohnson81 With everyone asking what bulbs, and where to get them, you should be posting referral links so you get a small commission for sales. Like Amazon for example. does that
I have one bulb that always flickers and looses power on my dash but its not the bulb. Something else is causing it to do that. Could it be something wrong in cluster. HELP
i have a 95 c1500 i wanted replace my bulbs with red led but someone has put different sockets with bulbs built into them where can i get sockets for the cluster lights t10 lights that is i looked on line and having trouble finding any
That's odd that only one is different. Mine actually still lit up yellow. If you want to change needle color you will have to take them off and paint them or get aftermarket needles. I painted my needles blue. You can see it in my other video of the climate control light swap.
Hey bro do you think you can help I just bought my beautiful 1993 chevy c1500 cheyenne and I wanted to change my gauge lights to blue leds. do you think you can send a link of which ones will fit ?

Hey Mr. Bryan! I was trying to install my blue leds I have the early 92 with the 180 roll up. Mine definitely didn’t come out as easy as yours? Should it have more slack? I am just worried I don’t wanna snap my shift wire. Thsnks
Hey Bryan, just curious I have a 1993 Chevy C1500 Cheyenne and was wondering if these led's would work for me in my truck, and if you know how long do these Led's last? And are the t10 twist locks what I need for my truck? Thank you..
They will work in your truck also. Don’t cheap out on them though. It’s one of those things that you get what you pay for. Good LED’s will last as long or longer than regular bulbs. When you order them get the T10 with 1/2” sockets.
What is the standard wattage bulb, and whats the best wattage led to get. Also I notice that there are 2 different size types of twist locks is the 1/2" the big ones, and what size are the smaller ones that are the blinkers, parking brake ect? Thank you very much for taking the time to answer my questions.
So you didn’t have to buy a different bulb to make the range selector blue? So so I understand correctly. Was thinking about mkig the range selector green but if I can’t thats fine I’ll buy 6 blue ones. Thank you!
@@BryanJohnson81 so I did try that they never worked but my buddy had some blue ones and they worked we just assumed that the red ones weren't strong enough to light the whole dash
+Raulcane69 They are 194 bulbs but I'd get the ones that come with the twist locks. The stock bulbs are soldered into the twist locks and are a pain to get out.
Bryan Johnson what kind of LED bulb could I purchase instead of the Sylvania 194 standard stock Chevy LED bulb what about aftermarket should it take t5 or t10 please let me know thank you so much for your video it was awesome you're the whole reason why I want to change my cluster lights
Jeremy I'm glad you liked the video. Check out my other videos. I also put leds in the climate control and painted the gauge needles blue. You might want to see that as well.
Would this work for a 90 c1500 I have the other style gauge that I find horrible but would is work for mine ik this is a old video but pls any help would be appreciated :0
My skinny cable to my shifter that you said make sure not to pop off came off and I don't know where it goes now and anyone send me a video to help me with this plzzzzz
Bryan Johnson I ran into an issue with the bulb in my original sockets not working. Having to return the lights and going to get the ones with the sockets. Thank you for the help
I haven't changed mine yet (looking for a replacement with similar mileage), but from the videos and posts I've seen, the one with the tach is a plug-n-play replacement for the "moon" cluster.
Ebay and Amazon have product compatibility tests for specific vehicles, every time I check the T5 and or T10, with any seller, it says these are not compatible with my '92 Silverado. Which size is for the instruments, like speedometer, fuel, oil, etc and which is the smaller size for the warning lights, like seat belt, check engine etc.
I’d have to watch the video again myself. It’s been a long time but I’m pretty sure there’s 6 T10’s. I didn’t change the others so I couldn’t tell you on those for sure. I’d guess 10 or so
Hmm. Only other thing I can think of is to make sure the bulbs are making good contact. Try pulling down the contacts on the bulbs a little bit to get a little tighter connection.
Bryan Johnson aha, can u make a video showing the GPS working. Caz it's very unique and nobody really has one up. I'm contemplating on GPS or a rear back up camera.
@Chet Carson to all their own, do whatever you want with your truck, hopefully the video at least helped you to achieve whatever you’re going for with your truck 👍🏼
Now where to get the actual dash. Mine is all cracked to hell. and LMC truck who specializes in parts for older trucks does not have them @@kx250rider09
Someone needs to make a kit. The big illumination LEDs with new screw bases (if needed) and all the smaller warning lights with new screw bases.

Great video I was looking for a tip on why my LEDs aren't working, I'm going to try putting them in the other way! Thanks. Hope this works they weren't cheap!
Sometimes you do have to turn them back just a little bit. It is possible they aren’t making good contact at full lock.
I😮 really want to do this to my 94 GMC suburban 1500 one day 😊
You should! It’s a cool “upgrade” but totally unnecessary lol!!
You get better results if you peel the green film from behind the the indicators. Under the green film is must clear plastic, so you’ll have more of a vivid blue coming through. To do it, you’ll have to take the cluster apart to get to it.
they are solid plastic green pieces behind each separate compartmented instrument panel gauge not a plastic film you can peel off
Way too much trouble for not any noticeable difference
From what I can find out, T10 is 1/2 wide at the base, T5 is 12mm, T4 is 10mm, and T3 is 8mm wide.

I didn't know the lights were so easy to replace. I thought you had to solder leds to the circuit board.
Yep. OBS trucks are easy. I have an 02 Sierra now and have to solder the bulbs in the climate control.
How do you change the LEDs in the 4wd shifter
It’s easy. Just take the shift knob off and there are two screws holding the indicator to the floor and there are two bulbs in there to change
Question what switch was that right underneath the light switch on the left hand side?
That one is for the cargo light
@@BryanJohnson81 do you happen to know where i could get one?
LMC Truck should have them. You could probably get one from the local auto parts store too.
Are the LEDs dimmable? If so what brand are they?
I cheeped out on mine so they aren’t dimmable. I can’t remember what brand they are. You can buy some that are.
I got the red ones just like urs and they come on just not bright and my brightness adjuster don’t work u think the bulbs are bad they sent me
If your brightness adjuster doesn’t work I’d say that’s the problem.
The adjuster works with the regular bulbs just not the led it stays the same I think it the leds I bought aren’t bright enough
Cheepies will have a problem dimming @@jacobphillips6203
Would this work for a 90 c1500 I have the other style gauge that I find horrible but would is work for mine ik this is a old video but pls any help would be appreciated :0

Here is a link for the other style cluster. Hope it helps
I’ve got a question about my guage lights, what abbreviation for the fuse is it ?
It’s the top left 20 amp fuse. It should say gauges
Ok , and yesterday when I replaced a few fuses they stopped working
that’s interesting! As far as I know that’s the only fuse for the gauges
Bryan Johnson ok , I’ll look into it
Where did you get the LEDs from?
I got mine off of eBay. You can get them from Amazon as well
My skinny cable to my shifter that you said make sure not to pop off came off and I don't know where it goes now and anyone send me a video to help me with this plzzzzz

Hope this helps.
What about the warning lights, any LED ones for those?
Scotty doesn'tKNOW I believe all of the other lights are T5
@@BryanJohnson81 thanks. May as well do them off if I'm in there.
Did you have to the bulb sockets when switching to the LEDs?
I could have re used the sockets but I bought bulbs with sockets too
Bryan Johnson I ran into an issue with the bulb in my original sockets not working. Having to return the lights and going to get the ones with the sockets. Thank you for the help
glad I could help
Bryan Johnson I forgot to ask, where did you purchase you bulbs that came with the sockets and the brand?
I found them on eBay. They were cheap ones so I don’t think they had any particular brand name
Hey has anyone switched the instrument cluster from the moon clusters to this one in the video. If so how you do it? Does the tech work?
I haven't changed mine yet (looking for a replacement with similar mileage), but from the videos and posts I've seen, the one with the tach is a plug-n-play replacement for the "moon" cluster.
Any ideas why the T10/194 LED replacements are incompatible with a 1992 Chevy Silverado?
I have no idea why they wouldn't work. Chevy and GMC use the same cluster. Do they not fit? Not lighting up?
Ebay and Amazon have product compatibility tests for specific vehicles, every time I check the T5 and or T10, with any seller, it says these are not compatible with my '92 Silverado. Which size is for the instruments, like speedometer, fuel, oil, etc and which is the smaller size for the warning lights, like seat belt, check engine etc.
eBay said the same thing with mine. They worked just fine. The T10 are for the gauges and T5 are for engine, seat belt, turn signal lights etc.
Great, thanks!
You bet.
I put in white led lights but my cluster is still green
The film behind the gauges is green so unless you change colors it will still be green
@@BryanJohnson81 is there a way to take off the film?
@@Hxctor._813 where there’s a will there’s a way but I never went that far with it
Donde compro el cubo que esta dinde antes estaba el panel de audio?
I found it on eBay
How do i look for it? Thank you
I mean, what is the name of the piece?

my 91 has the same cluster but on the back the lights are not open.
there’s a cover that needs to come off to get to the lights
@@BryanJohnson81 okay i will try that! do you have any info on the cruse control working when it wants too
@@josephalba8460 that could just be a bad connection somewhere
how many LEDs does it have
I’m pretty sure I said how many in the video. I think there’s six
I did this and the dash stopped working
Did you make sure it got plugged in all the way?
So what about the green tint that’s behind the dash. I️ our red leds in mine and it doesn’t light up the Speedo or tac cuz of the green tint lol
What type led’s did you get? I put in 8 smd led’s that are bright enough to show the blue color instead of the green backing color.
Bryan Johnson would 5smd be bright enough?
They should be plenty bright. Just don’t get cheap ones.
Bryan Johnson Ight thanks!
You bet
Did you also changed those small ones?
No I didn’t, just the big ones
Bryan Johnson what do the small ones do?
They are for the turn signals, check engine, brake etc.
Bryan Johnson What size are the small ones
I don’t remember for sure but I think they are t5
Can that be done to a 1996 Chevy 1500 truck?
Yes it can. It’s the same process. You won’t have the gear selector cable to deal with so it will be easier for you
@@BryanJohnson81 Thanks
where did you get your bulbs? I have a 94 SLE but it doesn't have the rpm gauge for some reason
I got em from eBay. Search for 88-98 led instrument panel lights and a bunch will come up. Get the ones that come with the twist lock already on them.
Hey my 94 does show rpm either
How many total t10s and how many total t5s
I’d have to watch the video again myself. It’s been a long time but I’m pretty sure there’s 6 T10’s. I didn’t change the others so I couldn’t tell you on those for sure. I’d guess 10 or so
I I just did this today but my gauges don't light and anything I do they won't light
Did you try turning the bulbs around? I had one that gave me fits. Just had to clean up the contacts and it started working.
Yes I did. And no change
Hmm. Only other thing I can think of is to make sure the bulbs are making good contact. Try pulling down the contacts on the bulbs a little bit to get a little tighter connection.
leds are polarity sensitive, unlike iridescence bulbs they only will work one way, pos to pos an neg to neg
ok, does that gsp plug into power where that stock radio used to be?
I never did get around to hard wiring the GPS in to anything. I just ran the wires around the side and plugged it into the cigarette lighter
Bryan Johnson aha, can u make a video showing the GPS working. Caz it's very unique and nobody really has one up. I'm contemplating on GPS or a rear back up camera.
Unfortunately I don’t have this truck anymore. I sold it and bought a 2002 Sierra.
Bryan Johnson what kind of world are we living in.... How much u get for it?
Haha! I got 2800 for it.
Where can i buy these LED bulbs??
You can get them on eBay or amazon
Will this work with a 92 Yukon gt?
If it looks the same as mine it will work
my truck is a standard is it the same process
Yep. It’s the same process. You won’t have the gear selector to deal with so it will be a little easier.
Bryan Johnson thanks
You bet.
do thay come blue or are those special order
I ordered blue lights. You can get any color you want.
Bryan Johnson cool last question are those the same lights that your license plate lights use
I couldn’t tell you what the license plate lights are. I’m pretty sure they are a different size bulb
Bryan Johnson alright thanks for the help
I ordered T5's are those the correct size?
T5 are for the turn signals, engine and brake light etc. the gauge lights are T10
Bryan Johnson thank you buddy..👍
You bet
Thanks man you saved me I was about to get t10
It sure will
@Chet Carson to all their own, do whatever you want with your truck, hopefully the video at least helped you to achieve whatever you’re going for with your truck 👍🏼
Bryan Johnson where did u buy ur dash cover for this truck
jonathan martinez The dash cover was in the truck when I bought it. I just got a dash cover for my 02 from cover king. I'd check them out.
Bryan Johnson okay thanks I appreciate
jonathan martinez they sell them on eBay for like 10 dollars
Now where to get the actual dash. Mine is all cracked to hell. and LMC truck who specializes in parts for older trucks does not have them @@kx250rider09
What is the new LED bulb number.
Don Boser They are the same as stock. T10 or 194
What’s the bulb size
T 10
If you just want the bulb without the socket, it’s 194
Where can I buy these led lights
Just about anywhere. I got mine from eBay.
Where can i get these led lights
I got mine from eBay. You can also get them on amazon or any place that sells led’s
What LED did u use
I just used cheap eBay led’s
Where did you order the lights
I ordered them from eBay. I can’t remember who the seller was though.
Bryan Johnson I can’t find them at all really want them
Search for T10 led and a whole bunch will come up
Bryan Johnson do I have to just buy the bulbs? Are the thing that holds the bulbs too ?
It will make your life a lot easier if you get the bulbs with the sockets!
that dashboards different than my 98
The style is different but internals should be the same.
How did you do your rimd
Cameron Moore It took a lot of masking tape and patience.
Where do i get the lights
I got mine from eBay. You can find them on amazon also.

Yes they are
