They're not bulbs; they're LEDs. They're soldered to the printed circuit board at the back of the instrument panel. Replacing them involves more soldering skill than I have so I paid ilanpro to do it. Worth the $100.

How about a pic of the board? Is this something you could cover with a blue film or something?

The pictures don't do it justice. It truly blue and looks good. I've got the clock, hvac controls, the esc & illumination controls, the cruise controls and all the window controls. There's no question it is blue and not white or a lighter blue.

I've seen several things ilanpro had done and he does great work.

The blue looks sweet. Definitely something I would love to get done.

The odometer doesn't change...that's why he's getting rid of it. IIRC, he bought it off of eBay but his car has more than 11,000 miles on it. He had the same guy (ilanpro) change the LED's in his own cluster so the mileage would be right.

In simpler words, if you put this cluster in your car, you'll be back at 11,000 miles (and kiss your warranty goodbye).

True that... BUT! FYI after swapping my old cluster back I took the car to the dealer (after putting around 1K+ miles on the other cluster) and they hook it up to the pc to check for some things and they did not notice anything, they gave me the props for the blue gauges tho heh...
