1984-1989 Corvette Instrument Panel LED Replacement Bulb Kit Complete

The best replacement LED bulbs we've ever seen!

We spent years testing LED replacement modules, but none of them lived up to our expectations until now.

Factory 882 and 7073 Halogen bulbs are difficult to obtain, and the heat they generate can seriously damage your Digital Cluster. The cool-running Xenon bulb kits we offer are an excellent solution, but they still dissipate some energy as heat inside the cluster.

The cheap Amazon / Auto Parts Store LEDs use resistors to drop the voltage, and still dissipate a huge amount of heat inside the cluster - enough to burn if you come into contact with them.  Our replacement LED bulb modules use modern electronics to step down the voltage.  They run cool to the touch, and they consume 65% less power than the factory bulbs. This means longer life for the heat-sensitive components in your cluster, and longer life for the LEDs as well!

They are approximately the same color temperature (3000K) as the factory bulbs (2700K), they're approximately 45% brighter than the factory bulbs, and they look great!

 A Note about dimming - The LEDs are dimmable with the control on the headlight knob. However, the LEDs are much more efficient than the bulbs, and put out more light at a given voltage than the bulbs do. As a result, they don't dim as completely as the bulbs do. If having cool cluster internals is most important to you, go with the LEDs. If you live in a bright location, or have a convertible, or have trouble seeing the cluster in the daytime, the LEDs are probably the best choice. If you drive a lot at night, and it is important to you to dim the cluster completely, then the Xenon bulb Kit we sell is probably a better choice.

 A note about the small indicator bulbs - We tested several replacement LED options in the turn signal and high beam indicators.  They aren't a great fit for this application, and some required flashers to be changed out to function at all.  The indicator and high beam bulbs are low-wattage in comparison to the factory bulbs, so they are not a significant source of heat.  Instead, we chose to supply incandescent bulb for the small turn signal and high beam indicators. 

The next two images were shot in identical lighting conditions, using identical camera settings. The bulbs are almost identical in brightness, and are only a slightly different color than the LEDs. Our lightmeter shows that illuminated regions are  about 40-50% brighter on a cluster running our LEDs than a cluster running our Xenon bulbs.

The LEDs are great for daytime driving in bright climates and for convertible users. If you drive a lot at night and need the cluster to dim completely, the Xenon bulbs are probably a better option for you.
