Actually I am not sure on that specific size. You can order 1 and try it. Or to do the center console you need to get resistors and leds. go get a kit from ledautomotive.com and save yourself some frustration.

Sweet Write Up.

Quick question: I'm doing some research on converting to LED's in my dash and Instrument Panel, just figuring out some ideas and building off the DIY's here. I was wondering if the brightness of the LED's will Dim down when you adjust the "Dash Lights Brightness Knob"?

I assume it does even with the resistor on the LED's.

Thanks!

it does if you wire it to the actual power wires for each piece. chances are you won't have to dim it. and when you put leds in there, they will need to be facing forward or you will barely get any light.

i'm looking in one now, and they are all leds except the signal lights and far light which are bulbs. also the immobilizer, signals, and far lights have colored icons. i am pretty sure leds will still shine but with white its tricky. you'll prolly see green still for those 3 icons. blue would work. the rest of the icons are clear but you will have to replace the leds that are wired to the circuitboard.
