I WAS using the daylight LED though it was a single LED, and since the light is directional from a LED and the light has to reflect to the fiber optic in the cluster, I figured that to be the reason for the dim lights. Still, it seems like the investment ($$) is hardly worth the return at something like $30 for the two LED's, with the shipping. Hardly seems worth it.

Cypress, I reassembled my CC unit and it's working fine, but I have another board for the cluster which I'm going to resolder. Has anyone heard of baking the boards in an oven to melt and resolder one? Not sure where I read it, possibly here, where putting a board in an oven at 365° for 6 minutes, takes care of those crystalized solder joints. I've stripped a board taking off gauges and their internals and I'm going to try it unless someone has a better suggestion. I have a fear that with a small soldering iron and so many connections, some of the solder will run to an adjacent joint and short the thing.
