Harley gauge light replacement - Red LEDs - No fog

The small gauges have been fogging up and are not very well lit, so here is an "Upgrade". Swap out the standard incandescent bulbs in the small gauges for LED T10 type lamps in red.

Bro! Just did mine and it looks awesome. Thanks for posting this video!

[@BigniceJohn]

Zachary Conley I am glad it helped. Did you have polarity issues?

[@zacconley152]

BigniceJohn - Sure did, just flipped them and worked like a charm

what is the number on the bulb ? to order a few?

[@jameszee7585]

I just found this video. Thank you. Where did you get the bulbs?

[@BigniceJohn]

James Zee eBay. The choices are endless.

[@ticseit2737]

Well I learned something new today

[@BigniceJohn]

Cool. Internet was useful then. Not always the case, but we try.

[@billytaylor7900]

Good video which headlamps did you use when you replaced them (supplier)

[@BigniceJohn]

I bought the headlight and spots from Amazon. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01KWVS7J2/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

[@infini1970]

Nice! Good job! What is the type of light? 194 styled? Same with the OEM?

[@BigniceJohn]

Same as OEM, but LED. Watch polarity. If the bulb does not light, remove it, flip it around and reinsert.

Hello! what leds did you use? any brand or anything specific? Im looking for the Yorkim leds from Amazon..

[@BigniceJohn]

Eduardo Loya The LEDs were nothing special. Just T10 in red. Don’t go crazy bright.

[@viewsfromedsshed5356]

Hi, nice job. Just a question about the headlamp you swapped over. Do you notice any excess heat coming from the LED light? I'm thinking of replacing my light on my 97 glide to an LED, but am worried about the heat from it. Or have I listened to too many scare stories? Cheers

[@BigniceJohn]

No heat issues to speak of. Not as hot as the halogen in there before. I have 3k miles in this light now. No problems.

[@viewsfromedsshed5356]

BigniceJohn thanks mate, I'll fit it and keep an eye on it. If I have any issues, I'll let you know. Great videos, keep up the good work

[@BigniceJohn]

Eds Shed go for it. I also just did an LED amber turn signal swap with a basic resistor pack style load equalizer. I will post a video of that soon. Also work great and was less than $80 for everything I needed.

[@christophernieves3515]

So you can't swap the lights on the 2 main gauges?

[@BigniceJohn]

No. They are leds on the gauge board. There are no user accessible bulbs, at least on mine. The manual backs that up.

[@christophernieves3515]

@@BigniceJohn yea. Thanks man. I watched a few videos and noticed that.

[@timfitzmaurice2370]

Thx. This was easy

[@deelow313]

For a 93 flht classic will the T5 work and is it same process shown in video you have a 2000 why I ask

[@BigniceJohn]

I don't know about the 80CU bikes. The faring should come apart the same way and a quick look will tell. I would guess it would work though.

[@deelow313]

Yeah I got the evo with only 8k on it was a barn find been stored most of its life it’s in ment condition I’m trying to give it that new modern Harley-Davidson look with out braking the bank, thanks for sharing your video

[@jackrobson8348]

@@deelow313 what all did you do to bring it up to date looking?

[@jimtorre5938]

I have 05 flht the tach and speedometer have a different connector of the gauge how do these come apart?

[@BigniceJohn]

Jim Torre I would not mess with the speedo and tach. The lights in those gauges are soldered onto a board and are LED already. There are kits and paid services to do those. The entire gauge has to be removed and disassembled. At least that is true for the batwing and street glide main gauges.

[@robertdouglas6155]

Where did you get the lights?

[@BigniceJohn]

Ebay - T10 red led. This video is from 4 years ago. I am sure there are better options now.

[@t.s.racing]

My Toyota has red dash lights from the factory and they're the worst damn thing ever. In the daytime wearing my sunglasses you can't read the gauges. All you see is a red glow. In my Harley I switched to mini L.E.D. bulbs to replace the 194. In fact my Harley now has all LED except for the turn signals.

[@BigniceJohn]

SARGE BULLDOG ok. Seems we are on the same page then.

[@dakotapinks1372]

What year bike is this

[@BigniceJohn]

2000

[@twill9499]

thanks just did mine

[@BigniceJohn]

Teffany Williams great. I hope it worked as well as mine did

[@Dozerguy]

RED light is so much easier on night vision

[@seaiii]

Can anyone that has done this mod comment on the longevity of their LEDs? I have read other places that guys are having issues with them burning out after a few months to a year.

[@BigniceJohn]

I did this bulb change of course. A year later I sold the bike after riding a few thousand miles and all was fine. The issues with them not lasting is in the quality of the lamps more than the technology. Get good bulbs, they last.

[@seaiii]

BigniceJohn do you remember what brand you purchased or the price you paid? Thanks in advance!

[@theoc634]

What size are the bulbs

[@BigniceJohn]

Eddie Villegas T10 as in the video description.
