HVAC LED Lights
I only have installed pics, no In-progess. There is a thread with those kind of pictures already.
There are 3 Bulbs in the HVAC. the Headlight Switch is a soldered on bulb. I plan to solder a Blue LED to mine in the future.
I installed BLUE LED T5 Bulbs. (12mm Dia. 12mm High)
If you can find ones with 180 Degree light spread that would be better, mine I think are only 60 or 70. (Ebay Ones)
The lights Shines into a clear plastic part that spreads it to the gauges.
Some people say that their Headlight Switches dont light up. Both the ones I have had, So they might just have dead bulbs.

Looks good. Before it gets real dark, do they still appear the same color? Reason I am asking is because I ordered some off ebay and they turned out to be blue in the dark but purple in the day. If they are still blue, would you mind posting which company on ebay you purchased them from? Thanks.

It should still be the normal white look in the day, as the LED's are not on unless the markers/Headlights are.
Im thinking of picking up ones that are 180 Degree angle range, that will light up the panel ALOT more, mines are 70 or something not very good for the HVAC.
The T5's Fit, Tight. But can go in without any modification.
Here is what they look like. Ebay has different ones and these when you search T5, You find these quicker searching T5 Neo

damnit i ordered my t3's over a week ago from vleds and still NO PACKAGE....>GRRRRR why go from WA to NY then back to CA, stupid USPS.
i like the t5 without no mods, but i feel that the b8.5d gets more light spread than the ones you have imo, maybe 90 degree makes a ton difference

I wanted less to mod. Thats why I got them. They are 90 Degree ones. I might get 120 degree ones, they would work better imo.
