Razo are like 20 per pair..yeah..expensive..but it's looks a better white than the rayberg ones, the rayberg's gives you a yellowish white, and for some reason, it seems some lights can't go through where 20mph and 120 mph at... it's kinda a hater..i will have a pic posts soons.

Nice pics. Yea i know its a pain to get pics of the gauges clear. i was also thinking of goin with those LED blue lights. they give out a nice Bright Blue glow to them, they sell these on ebay for about 5 bucks each. probably end up spending more jus trying diff blue bulbs. when i know for sure these will light up blue. i have a fren with a accord that used those but then again his guages r a little diff then ours. but i wanted all u solara owners out there to give a suggestion or if anyone has tried these. its a great ideal but to change all the ac(manual control)control and gauges will run u at least 7-9 bulbs. 7x5=35bucks or 9x5=45 is it worth it.. or should i get indiglos for 49 shipped. haha.. but i personally dont like indiglo look anymore..i had them on my previous car and it kinda bugged after a while.. too bright at times. lemme know what u guys think.

I wasted at least a hunderd on 194... :( sigh....I got like 6 piaa plasma blues, 2 piaa ion yellow, 2 razo super white, 8 rayberg superwhite, and finally 2 worthless blue bulbs from kragen... I don't think the ac controls bulbs are 194, they are the small ones, same size as the bulbs on ur sunvisors...(if I'm wrong, then someone please corret me)
