LED's for Dash Light Bar ?

[Racer57]

I did some searching and found references to this site ............  https://www.superbrightleds.com/
But exactly which ones are needed and is it possible to buy some that will dim or is that even needed ?

My dash lights quit working tonight. Don't know if its the switch, fuse or wtf happen. But before I start looking to see wtf happen,  I thought I would check on leds.

Stock E-body dash lighting sucks as everyone here knows. If you leave the stock lenses in place, I don't think you'll need to worry about dimming them. I've got cheap LEDs from eBay on my Dart dash. You might be able to find cheap replacements that fit the Challenger wiring as well. Some of those LEDs are rediculously expensive. Just try cross referencing the stock bulb number to an led on eBay.

What did you use ?

Wow Katfish look much brighter - must be a new ground or dimmer switch. Or maybe because I didn't pull the blue filters.

I got mine on ebay like these:

I believe these are the ones I got:

Those look like the exact bulbs I bought.
I bypassed the dimmer switch and added grounds to each bulb.
It looks super bright because that shot was taken inside garage with no lights, pitch black.
They're perfect brightness when driving with natural lighting.

I thought it had to do with grounding, looks good!

Just a note to those going to order these, read the "quantity" before you make a selection; I ordered like 4 and ended up with 40 (they are cheap so that isn't an issue), just saying..

My Challenger is in storage so I can't look at it...

How many of those LED bulbs does the dash take?  The E-bay link is for (4) bulbs.  I know the light bar has 4.  Does the switch panel light(light package) take the same bulb?  What about the shifter light in the console?  I might just buy two kits.
