Topics of discussion range from fuel economy, safety, modifications, performance all involving America's favorite family car, the Toyota Camry.
So my lights on my dash are crap and I would like to get them replaced. Does anybody know how or have directions that i can change these bulbs? Also what size are they and what color should I get (the car is green). Thanks.
Peace.

To get to the instrument cluster, you 1st need to remove the radio U trim. there is 2 clips on the boyyom. Use a flathead screwdriver and pop it out.
Unscrew the 2 phillipshead screws there that you see. Then unscrew the 2 phillipshead screws on the upper parts of the dash trim, in front of the instrument cluster.
Rest just pops off with the same style clips as the radio U trim, just take it easy.
The cluster is just 4 screws or bolts, I forget, but easy.
Ther are 4 (MAYBE 5, I forgot) 194 bulbs, and 1 #74 (Where you see it out in the below picture)
*Edit. My dumbass just looked at the pic, 4 #194 bulbs.

So I took all of the green plastic coverings off of the lights it looks sweet. But one thing was when I did that i also cleaned everything on the dash and took the needles off. So when finished i out the needles on and wanted to know what it looked like with the lights on and what not. So i turn it on and (just the lights not the engine) and it was at 4 RPM and i was already going 45 MPH. HAHA, dang. So i fixed it while driving passed those things that clock you on how fast your going. yup. It works now.
Also I got blue turn signal lights by taking the green covers and gluing a piece of cooking sheets and blue paint. haha. yeah it's that cheap. that's how I roll.
I'll get pictures up later.
QUESTION: Does anyone know how to change the orange on the needles to red??
