Swapping Out Instrument Lights to LED--What Color Temp?
Before I buy replacement 194 & 161 LED's for the tach, speed, & gauges what temperature color bulbs best matches the originals? 6500K, 4100K, or 3000K -- Is $6 a typical price?

3000K is the closest to incandescent in that list (should be under 2700K actually) These likely won't dim, so if they don't light up right away, check your ignition switch & make sure it's not dimmed.
Many of those little lamps are polarity sensitive too, so if they don't light right away, flip them in the socket.......
