2G How to change out dash light bulbs on a 95 eclipse rs

[Btc89]

I am wanting to know how to change out my dash lights. I have no clue how to. If you could help me that would be great.

There's 2 screws that hold the gauge bezel on. 4 screws holding the gauge cluster in. After that, just pull the cluster out and you can access the bulbs. If you're replacing them with LEDs, the bulb size is #74

Is this the same for the center console Bulbs? Same number 74?

No. All mine I got from superbrightleds.com I don't have the bulb number handy right now since I'm at school, but can post it when I get home later.

HVAC is the only area I haven't finished yet. Its a bit of a pain right now. From the factory there's only one bulb in the unit with a clear acrylic piece to fan out the light. It doesn't work for the LEDs though.

Here's the link to the lights I use for center console and all button lights: NEO3 Instrument Cluster and Gauge | LED Car Bulbs | Super Bright LEDs I get the high output in 3mm size.

And for reference, the link to the gauge cluster lights: T1.5 Instrument Cluster and Gauge | LED Car Bulbs | Super Bright LEDs I get these in high output too.

Good luck

I got mine switched to LEDS, but there are some dim spots.. Any reason why?

I Just recently bought an eclipse rs and I want to change out my dashboard lights from stock to red l.e.d. I've read all these post and I have a general idea of what to do now I wanna know how many bulbs are in the instrument cluster alone. I already took apart the center console and HVAC section but one of the screws holding the cluster in was stripped out by the previous owner. So I just wanna order what I need now so when I do get it taken apart I'll just be able to throw the new bulbs in and put it all together.
