98 supercharged 347 sport
hi everyone, here is my question. i want to convert all the lighting in my 98 sport from god awful green, to bling blue (switches, gauges, everything). i have read some older posts on some of you doing this with L.E.D.'s. i know the bulb sizes (3mm, and 5mm, and 194 for the gauge, and HVAC), but what i don't know is the resister size. this is starting to drive me nuts! chances are that i will be getting them from superbrite l.e.d. but can anyone give me a answer for the resister size for each bulb. as well has anyone ever done the overhead console read out. i haven't seen anyone post anything on doing that, or can it even be done? thanks

That should help u out... if u enter the size of the LED, the amount of power it uses, and the arrangement of it, it will tell u exactly which resistors to get and how to arrange them... it gives u wiring diagrams and tips on what to buy... good luck (standard car batteries r 12 volt btw)
 






dam! thats the cats ass! thanks bigapple! i also forgot to ask if anyone knows the polarity of the switches and stuff, so i don't have to resoder the resisters
