Rallye Dash Bulbs

[bobfake]

Good morning all…

Before I order, can you please confirm that these 158 bulbs look right? The FSM states 158’s, but for some reason I thought the bulbs were push and turn sockets, not T10.

Thanks in advance!

They push into a twist and turn socket

Hmmm…so in your picture, does the bulb detach from the base? i.e. new bulb in the base and install bulb/base in the dash?

Push in bulb in holder. Holder twists into circuit board.

Do yourself a favor and upgrade to LED dash bulbs.

Nice…what manufacturer/part number LED did you go with? I assume the bulb has a blue tint?

I bought mine from this website.

My bulbs are not the 194's like your are.

My bulbs have a circular base.
I chose the cool blue ones, but other colors are available.

Bought mine from Superbright LED’s also. You can search by application which shows all the bulbs in the vehicle.

Did anyone have an issue with resistance replacing all the bulbs with LED? I heard or read that the low resistance can cause an issue. Read to leave two incandescent bulbs in place?

 

[71Beeper]

Yes, low resistance is an issue with turn signal flashers - the stock ones will not work with LED's.

If you upgrade to LED's for tail lights and signals you will need to use the correct flasher.
I bought this one which works well.
