Not sure y the link is broke but they are

194/168 12V 4W (T10 Wedge)
5 LEDs Per Bulb
Blue Color
Wide View Angle/ Piranha Type

Is 194 the same as 161? These have one bigger led on top and four around the sides. Are the colored bulbs good enough in their light output? I've heard they can crack as in white/yellow will show through in cracks through the blue, but I did put blue 194 bulbs in my Eclipse's guages in the guage pod and they haven't done that. They are more white than I would like and I am thinking a 5 led bulb like this will have a more even appearance maybe?

hi

You said you want your gauges to glow blue. If you have a 94 or up Camaro, just get sum reverseglow gauges I have a pretty good intallation guide in here. I bought my gauges off of e-bay for 40 dollars.

Gotcha on cz28.com too, but just in case...

Like he said above, get the 194's.
imo the led's look a lot better than the reverse glow gauges.
I'm getting ready to sand and paint my needles chrome. Painted them midnight blue metallic, but can't see 'em at night lol... Hoping the chrome will brighten them up.

Good luck with it
