    I have SuperbriteLED lights in my car and they look much much better than stock but I miss the ability to dim. I'm going to order a set.

    Oh sure. All the gauges were out of my car all last winter and I couldn't seem to find a decent LED alternative that worked as well as these appear to. Now that they are all back inside my car and I still am waking in cold sweats having dreams about trying to get all the wires back on in the right places, these come along

    Just ordered a set as was notified they are on their way. I believe my 57 year old eyes will really appreciate these. This is the solution I have been waiting for for years - so long to the superbright LEDs.

    I just ordered two sets....one set of vintage and one set of bright white. Either way, they should be a vast improvement over the original type incandescent bulbs. It'll be a pleasure to actually be able to read the gauges when running about after sunset!

    Did anyone install these? Feedback? I noticed the guy will be in Anaheim for the Swap meet. I may check them out there.

    I made my own several years ago. Makes a huge difference. The plug-n-play aspect of this set looks really appealing.

    Kind of expensive though.
