LED services and buy-in

They make LED replacements for the b-pillar lights?(Bulb number is 161)

[85MercPark]

85merkpark - 2 for the outer Bpillars - blue?

Yes, Blue. What other colors are there? May get a couple incase my mood changes

2 or 4 - I think the difference is wether or not you have a trip odometer.. those have 4 i think.

heres a little something to get the endorphins flowing....
in these pics only the 194s are lighting the car... the row of small LEDs in the dash is off.
The LEDs behind the vents are the older single LED inverted-lense-side-emitters. Looking right at the 5 LED ones kinda hurts the eyes... I put the older ones in the doors becuase it was too bright... (5LEDs in the doors for the pics)

THATS FN AWSOME

Paul - IIRC the 161 bulbs is the same size and shape as a 194 bulb. These replacemenet can fit into any bulb socket that uses a small wedge base.

85merkpark - this guy also has red, white, and amber. Ill have a couple of each extra so you can see how they look

There also exists green ones, but the seller i get them from doesnt have them. Everyone else besides the hong kong guys are selling them for like $8-$10 each!

5.0 LSC - are you in the PA area??? if you come to scottfest, I can hook you up!

Everyone - Ill be placing the order tonight. LAST CHANCE!!!

Seneeb's 97 should have 6 bulbs for his cluster as it is basically the same as mine. Seneeb you can't pull the filter off the clusters in these cars so it will be pretty dim. It is cool too have the blue glow around the odometer and trip but that is about it.

Petemang -

How much for the blue LEDs that fit in a 140 cluster?

[seneeb]

that's fine, it'll still giterdun

[85crownHPP]

tom - same price - Id use the 5-led ones.

seneeb - if Zwack is right, there is no obligation. Im interested to see what they look like myself!
Did you use the 5-led bulbs zwack?

[seneeb]

go ahead and pick them (6) up pete and we'll figure it out there

[gadget73]

I already ordered a dozen 194 in blue, so whatever extra I have will be avaliable as well.

[zwack88]

I thought it was 5 but then I found a one that I missed at the bottom. I wanted to do my OD off light and AC controls also bring a total of 8 for me. I should have ordered 9. I was short one in the end so it would mean 6 just to light the cluster.

You sure Pete? I thought 168 was the other replacement for a 194 bulb.:confused:

[85crownHPP]

yes, Im sure - lol

there are many bulbs that are the same size as a 194, and many more that have the same base.
Look up a 161 bulb and see for yourself!

[Grand Marquis GT]

He's right.

whenever a vehicle called for a 168 (or they brought on in) when i worked at advance, i'd give em a 194.

194 is the most modern and bright version of that size bulb. Plus, it's the most common

My bad.
