Clock Light Replacement - Guide

Might be polarized? try inserting turning the lights 180 degrees and see if they light up. Make sure you push them into place and turn them to lock in.
Also, make sure they are properly seated. I remember mine giving me a hard time when I put 'em in, had to use some pressure to turn them.

To those that do not already know, the orange tint from the stock bulb is actually come from the orange plastic cover, peel that off and put it on ur clear bulb and I bet it'd match the rest of the car.

If you want the LEDs, go to http://autolumination.com/74.htm and scroll down about half way to the, "Order Neo Wedge Based LED Bulbs (shown above): $2.99 ea."
They have these colors... Blue, Super White, Red, Amber, Green, and UV. I purchased the Amber ones (you need 2) and they match the rest of the lights exactly.
You want to purchase the "Type B" LED

Thank you for making this thread. I'm new to the forum and I went through the procedure yesterday to change my clock lights. Unfortunately when I got to the back of the clock I noticed that the entire light fixtures (bulb and base) were missing. I know I saw someone else who had the same experience, where would be the best place to purchase the whole fixtures as opposed to just the bulbs? Thank you guys for your help.

Removing interior trim
To remove the trim piece around the clock (and lots of other pieces too) go to
Harbor Freight Tools or Northern Tool and get a set of their trim removal tools. They are specially made plastic tools for removing trim pieces and they will not scratch up your car like screwdrivers or putty knives will. They come in a set of five or six tools for less than 10 bucks. Use the one with a gentle hook on the end and pull the trim around the clock straight out toward you. It pops right out.

I bought a set of the "30% brighter than regular Neo - Wedge LED Instrument Panel Bulbs." They are near the bottom of the page and are $3.49 instead of $2.99. Has anyone else tried these? http://autolumination.com/74.htm
maybe i should have went with those, instead of the "older" neo-wedge LEDs..cause i installed mine yesterday/last night and theyre not that bright at allllll...I was pretty disappointed..
