The thing that kept me from doing this swap was the fact that I had no idea how to gauge the quality of the replacement lamps. If they're cheap, and one doesn't know that unless he's a lighting expert, they'll burn out prematurely and then the maintenance nightmare begins to find replacement lamps at a reasonable price and the time to take the cluster or AC controls back out and replace them.

Any seller can put "lifetime guarantee" or whatever on their product and not be found a year or two later when one goes out. Or, they send you a replacement for free and you have to spend all that time again to replace it.

Just some thoughts I've had I thought I'd pass along.

I do have blue lights on my new head unit and would love to swap mine out to all blue... but this unknown quality issue is keeping me from doing it.
