yeah the leds are wide view flat top which give even light disbursement

Where did you wire them to in the cluster? Do you know where the positive/negative terminals are?

Also, is it possible to remove the 3 behind the LCD (the ones with the blue rubbers on them) and replace them with regular LEDs?

hey nice big question. how did you do the p,d,r,n,2,1, letters on your shifter? i had planned on redoing mine too sice the last time i took it apart a scraped some of the oem paint off. (really fragile) the oem painted letters were cheaply done. also i had the bright idea of using the lexus L emblem for low gear.. haha dont steal my idea until i do it first jk . ahh i see now after looking again you didnt black out the background behind the letters. so you just cleaned off the old paint and used stickers?

I removed the 3 leds and got my power from one of those led solder points. Just do a test to see which is positive and negative.

i sanded away the old letters and used stickers from the hobby store.
You peel of the letter sticker and use the left over sticker surrounds.
