I used the cool whites in my dash but kept the factory blue diffusers in pace.
Here's what it looks like...

Another question as to the turn signals. I replaced the rear tail section lights with LED's and everything works fine. When I put LED in the front turn signals they don't work. I am assuming I need LED flashers. For the 1974 RR what is the correct LED flashers that I need and where are the locations? I found one in the fuse box, where is the other one and which is which (turn signal and hazards)?

No flashers in the fuse block, that's the horn relay/key buzzer. Turn signal flasher is clipped to the ashtray frame, the 4-way flasher is clipped to the brake pedal support. Can’t run the original thermal flashers with all LEDs, need an electronic version, not load dependent.

Hey @71Beeper that looks awesome! I like that the light seems to spread evenly. I saw in another post that you got them from superbrightleds. Are they the ba9s style?

I found these on their site, but they are stated as non-dimmable, are these the ones you are using?
BA9s LED Bulb - 5 SMD LED Tower - BA9s Bulb

If so, I might have to look elsewhere, as I want to be able to dim them to ensure they are not too bright.

Yes, those are the ones I bought.

Depending on the color you use, they should not be too bright at all to have to dim them.
Don't forget you can buy them with higher or lower output lumens.

For 1971 the bulb base is the round one not the flat pigtail style.
