LED instrument cluster

[portlandareae28]

Has anyone changed their instrument cluster over to LED bulbs?  If so, how would you say you like it?  where did you get the bulbs? Is it worth getting the ebay kits, or better to source on my own?

I was thinking about doing it but haven't yet, seems like most of them kids put hotspots on the dash, I don't like seeing that

I have a lot to learn in the LED world for this type of lighting.  What makes one type of bulb better or worse?  I know in lights like your headlight or a beam that you want to control its all in the lens and reflection, but in an instrument cluster I just don't know.

LEDs still produce heat for extra bright bulbs. So far I'm very impressed with https://superbrightleds.com they have done me right for 2 orders now. They do a full lookup by year make and model. Bulbs always fit. They do give an optional oversized bulb too that may be bigger and brighter. List all brightness in lumens. I did this for the interior blubs knowing the ample room and lighting time is typically short.
