How do I remove the a/c bulbs for the dash in order to replace them with an LED? What kind of LED to I get from RadioShack? I need the voltage and milli amps to compute the resistance so I don't burn out the LED.

wave kiss Welcome to EverythingCELICA.com all the answers you're looking for are here, just surf a little bit more... happywink

There's not replacement for those bulbs. frown

If you want to change the color to red use bulb covers or use film

If you're looking for blue go with neon tube

But if your problem is a bulb, you may need to get a new complete A/C board (I guess around $100), and replace it is a bitch ohboy

i just replaced mine wiht a blue led (it already came with the resistor on it) you can get them just about any place (mine came from best buy, 4 for $15). the others i want to use for my heat/ac controls. and to replace the bulbs that are in my oil, water temp, and volt meter, because those look more orange then red.
