Tired of the green cluster lights? Changing them to blue LED's is very simple and wont cost you very much!
Tools and parts you will need:
- 8 LED lights, inverted lens wide angle, 12V 194 (6 if you dont replace the turn indicators)
- Philips screw driver, stubby and a long one.
- Pliers
- Piece of rubber hose
If I could just figure out how to meld the Outback and the Neon into one car...

I literally have just spent 4 HOURS trying to do this on my '05, and I've succeeded in breaking one bulb, and breaking one of the gray things, how the HELL do you get these bulbs out without breaking them, seriously me, my mom, my friend, and his friend all tried it, I finally had to put my cluster back together and go to bed cuz it was so frustrating, any help would be much appreciated!

Some of the bulbs/LED's were soldered in, but I can't recall what year(s). You may need to get new twist mounts.
