I put them in my wagon and they are very bright, completely dimmable and fit in the stock bulb location with no modifications. They are also available in colors. Their design works very well with the light tubes and lenses in our clusters.

You could then get these:

for the CCU and fiber optic spider so your console lights will be a matching color LED.

You'd have to solder in single LEDs for the window switches and I forget the bulb size for the shifter light.


EDIT: Here's what they look like in white:
So this is LEDs in the stock bulb locations? I've got a bag of bright white LEDs, I may try this. I've got Xenon bulbs now, the advice I'd give on those is don't bother. They've melted the plastic where they sit. Of course they've been there 4 years...
