Default 06 Gauge Cluster Lights

I want to swap out the stock white LEDs in the gauge cluster with blue ones. My question is what type of LEDs are they? SMD or Bulb? I don't want to have to pull it out once, and have to pull it again to install the LEDs.

Interesting idea, though I would probably go with a red hue.

My headunit is all blue, and I'm going to change all the LEDs on the HVAC controls to blue. May also be installing a PC fan controller to monitor the temp of my amps and one sub and speaker, in the install kit the goes in the cubby.

Just so you know, this is what I mean between bulb and SMD type LEDs.

These are Bulb Type LEDs


------------------------------------------

These are SMD Type LEDs


I know they are probably SMDs but I am trying to find out what type if anything, if someone here knows that would be great because I can't seem to come across this bit of information.

theyre neither bulbs nor smds. those are wedge bulbs. regular size wedge bulbs. LEDs. i just did my entire gauge cluster and its the same on yours. mine is a blue speedo, lime green tach and gas/ temp gauges on either side. looks great. hope this helps!

No dude, they are defiantly not regular tungsten bulbs. The light temp is too soft and white, they are defiantly LEDs. Your car is a 98, mine is a 06, they are not the same.
