Post DIY replace instrument cluster's light bulbs

Hi everyone
I recently replaced all of my instrument cluster light bulbs to LED. It turned out the way i wanted and it only took about 45 mins of my time.

If you want to do this, you're doing it at your own risk.

First, I follow the DIY instrument removal instructions from bythebay. This is the link

http://www.infinitihelp.com/diy/gcou..._procedure.htm

and this is my cluster



I remove all the OEM amber light bulbs on the back



I've tried it first with #24 Blue Wedge based bulbs



and it was horrible because it only cost .99 cent at http://autolumination.com/74.htm

but i was able to return them and got something else. This is what the cluster looks like after everything was done RIGHT.



Autolumination has a variety of #24 LED bulbs especially the new matrix 5 led bulbs and i've heard they're really good and cost about $5.99 but I haven't tried them out myself yet. I'll try them sometimes down the road when i'm bored with my blue LEDs

it's actually bright. It's just my old camera acting up again so the pics look blurry and dull.
