Reply to "Gauge Backlight LEDs, again"

LfepardoSeattle, WA, 2013 VS

Thank you Sean. Great information.

the green, red and blue LEDs where excellent for the blinker, oil pressure and high beam warning lights,

I did a similar retrofit years back. I ended keeping one regular incandescent background lighting bulb in each gauge.

Why you may ask?

I found that on chilly mornings and winter time ( with and without the top up/ hard top on) the gauges would fog up when all my bulbs were LEDs.... the little bit of heat from one incandescent bulb In each gauge was enough to keep condensation at bay.

Great write up.

cheers,
