    Lightbulb Would theses work as an exact change over in dash LED?

    just looking at the Jaycar website and found theses,
    T5 B8.5D Replacement LED Globe (White) - Jaycar Electronics

    Anyone know would they swap straight over without a resistor for the globes behind the dash in a VT?
    would be much faster doing LED conversion if they do.

    they will only fit the hole that lights up the odo display, all the others are different, you will have to use a resistor unless these globes have one built in. just buy some wide angle led's off of ebay with matching resistors, you dont have to be too good with a soldering iron to do the job.

    those will have inbuilt LEDs and they actually fit ur mode button as the contacts r on the inside rather than outside, which still rnt the best 2 use.
