Thank you for the positive review! I've been thinking about doing an update on this video. A few months ago, I swapped the leds to green and really like how they turned out. The blue looked great, but all the other lights should be swapped to match, which is a huge pain. Thanks for watching!

You chewed up the paint around your headlight switch. There is an easy no pry way to take that out. It involves removing the headlight switch twist knob, and reversing it to go back on and twisting the headlights to the "on" position. This method catches a little tog underneath the twist knob and releases a lock tab that holds the headlight switch assembly in place. No prying needed. :-)

I'm not sure what the differences are but there's 2 headlight switched for these trucks. You describe what I have with the release/lock pin thingies, there's another version that is just tension springs, where it just slides in and out by coaxing with a screwdriver/panel pry tool at the bottom in the center to remove (similar to my 05 superduty, but shape is different from the SD)

There is a trick for removing the light switch. Pull the knob off rotate it 180 degrees re install it then turn it 90 degrees clockwise. You will feel some spring tension from the catch. This retracts the catch on the left side and gently remove the left side and rotate it out.This allows the assembly to come out with out a lot of prying and no danger of scratching or cracking the dash cover. . It will then snap into place when you are done. Put the knob back also.

attempted this process today, unfortunately I did not realize the bulbs I ordered were 'ice blue' rather than just blue, so there is a fair amount of white light being emitted.. with the green tint that is painted on the dials it still looks just about as green as with the factory bulbs. I ordered the correct bulbs but I fear I may have to use acetone to remove the green tint on the dials to get the desired appearance. Will be giving it another shot when the new bulbs arrive in a few days.

Side note, I got tired of seeing the passenger airbag icon lit up on my gauge cluster so I removed the bulb and left it empty. BAD IDEA, the truck has a sensor that will beep 5 times and repeat 5 times when you start the vehicle if it detects this bulb has burnt out or is missing.

Thank you for the informative video! It shows what the dash can look like after the upgrade. It got me started on my quest to replace my burned-out dash lights and upgrade the look of my dashboard. But I ran into a snag. I used your links to buy the T-10 194 LED bulbs. Imagine my surprise when I tore down my dashboard to access the dashlights and discovered that your eBay site sent me the totally wrong replacement bulbs. I'm not going to bother cotnacting the ebay site to complain for a refund or exchange. Instead I had also looked at the channel for Living On Wheels and ordered the 194 bulbs from his link to an Amazon supplier. Bad suppliers are NOT your fault and YT channels that list supplier links are always helpful. It just didnt work out well in this case is all.

@TwoKeysStudio
@TwoKeysStudio 6 жыл бұрын
Bob Haddock yes they are. As you saw in the video I checked the LEDs prior to installing for polarity and put them in accordingly. Ford actually did this nice, the way the cluster is made the top part of the socket is positive and the bottom negative, at least that is how mine was. So once I knew which was positive and negative on the LEDs, which I checked on a battery charger, I put them in and they all worked the first time. Of course if any didn't work, its like you said just pull it out and rotate 180 degrees and it should work. Thank you for your input and watching the video.

I have a 2000 Ford F-150. I am replacing the instrument cluster lights with blue T-5 LED bulbs. The T-5 LED bulbs are polarity. When I install a LED bulb in the high beam indicator, I only get the LED to light up when I pull back on the left side turn-signal stalk or lever. When I push the stalk forward toward the dash so that the high beams are on all of the time and also for the high beam indicator light bulb to stay on all the time, I get no LED light at all. When I reverse the LED bulb polarity, I get no high beam indicator light at all in either direction. Does your T-5 LED bulb for your high beam indicator light up in both directions, forward for full time high beam or reverse (towards you) just to flash oncoming cars to warn them of a cop up ahead or whatever? I'm thinking I may have to use an LED bulb that is non-polarity, works in both directions like the factory original bulbs. But I do not see for sell on Amazon or EBay to where you can buy only one LED T-5 bulb that is non-polarity. Let me know on your truck if your high beam indicator light works in both directions (forward and aft or reverse). Thank You!!

I only did my illumination lamps with LED so I cannot comment with experience on this, although the LED should work correctly when put in using the right polarity. You might have an issue with your multi-switch. Hopefully someone that has done the swap on the high beam indicator came chime in on what their experience has been.

The 97-98 guys have it nice when it comes to this "mod". Their clusters have a blue background on the boards so even if they were to put in white leds their dashes will light blue, us 99-03 guys have a green film on the boards so no matter what we put in it will shine green. I found in the a/c controls the film isremovable, but the dash is a coating on the board.and if you take it ALL apart and scrape off the coating, you have to first go through the diffuser layer to get to the color layer. Then you have to remove and reinstall the needles if you go that route. I've looked into it. As for sizes, it's been a while, I don't recall. I THINK the smaller ones are 194 and the bigger are 37 or 74 or something like that, all "wedge base" bulbs, again I think its T10 (the wedge base code).

Did you swap the airbag light with an led? If so it could be the led.

We moved from Texas to Georgia a few years ago and my wife likes to keep a little bit of Texas with her. If we ever drive the Expedition back to Texas, no doubt we will get pulled over. Here in Georgia the smog checks are kept in a database, so no sticker is needed. Great catch, so far nobody has said anything.

I have seen where others have put white LED's in and the panel shows as a whiter blue. There is actually a blue tint in the panel that causes the incandescent bulbs, which are more yellow, to show as green. If you remove the tint then they will be white.

@TwoKeysStudio

Great question and thanks for the positive feedback. It required both T-5 and T-10 LED's. I have provided ebay links for the LED's that I used. There were 4 (I think) of the larger ones and a three or so of the smaller ones for illumination. The larger T-10's were for illumination only and the smaller T-5s are used for additional illumination and warning lights. I left the warning lights all as incandescent...at least for now.

Two Keys just installed them today. For anyone doing this on a 98-02 navigator don't pull/pry out the switch for your headlights...it will break lol (i superglued my bezel for it back together halfway), also you will need two 37 size or T5 LEDS to fill the top 2 "ILL" spots. And 5 194 for the rest. I did mine in white which resulted in a skyblue colour. Keep in mind the film is blue...the only reason its green stock is because the halogen bulbs are yellowy white. So if if you want say purple, just buy red leds, yellow for green etc...thanks again man.
