DSSOOY 10Pack T10 194 168 LED Light Bulb PC194 PC195 PC160 PC161 PC168 Instrument Panel Gauge Cluster Dashboard Automotive Light Bulb White

These worked perfectly for replacing the lights in my car's console. They're bright (without being blindingly so) - especially at night - making the gauges and console switches easy to read. Installation took a few hours since I had to rip the whole dash apart to get to the sections that needed new bulbs. Can't tell they aren't stock, as they don't set off any sensors or anything despite being LED (instead of stock) bulbs.

The light output is not as bright as the old incandescent bulb, it could be because they are red. Installing these into the adapter housing for the instrument cluster is easy, but installing the adapter into the instrument cluster is a pain. The black adapter seems to be larger than the opening and took some force to get them in. I do not believe these are 400% brighter as claimed, and they are definitely not as bright as in the pictures. The red color is a nice touch for the older vehicles with incandescent bulbs. The LED is not as dimmable as the original incandescent bulbs, and I have yet to see an aftermarket 194 LED that is dimmable.

Only two of the 10 bulbs are working, and the two that do are no where near the brightness of a standard bulb, deserves zero stars IMO.

4 out of the 10 bulbs were already bad. They did not turn on at all. Not sure if i got a bad pack or if the quality control is just bad.

These LEDs worked perfectly for refitting most of my smaller #196 or equivalent lamps on my truck. I got them to replace my instrument cluster backlights (3 of 6 had burned out) and they directly fit perfectly. I even used the remaining 4 to replace the license plate lamps and front corner markers (just so happen to take the same size).One word of advice: unlike the original lamps which will work no matter how you put them in the socket, these LED lamps are polarized (have specific 'positive' and 'negative' terminals on them). If you put it in the socket and it doesn't light up, you'll need to remove it and flip it over in the socket. I expected this (having a background in electronics) but for others who may not, I hope it helps.I can't speak as to their longevity yet, but as with most LEDs versus regular lamps, I expect they'll last at least twice as long as their predecessors.
