[DeTomaso] LED bulbs for gauges

[boyd casey]

I started to research led replacement bulbs for my gauges when I noticed the
condensation forming in my gauges and when feeling the heat on the glass
faces of the gauges. I don't have any bulb model #'s or sizes but what I do
remember was the biggest problem was finding an led bulb that would
illuminate the entire gauge face using the small bulb space. LEDs are very
directional in their illumination pattern and their are many design
variations to facilitate different applications. I did my research several
years ago and I know they have made tremendous strides in LED technology. I
believe Jon from Pantera electronics is familiar with some of the bulbs that
may work. I realize this doesn't really answer your question.
