all of the dash switches and windows are 3mm, cc unit is 5mm if you use the stock sockets

edit, you have a 05 r, nvm i have no idea, the above is good for 98-00

it's for a 2000 V. crap i don' t think radioshack sells blue 3mm. i want to try one out first before spending the money on fleebay.

What LED's are you looking to swap to? Switch lights, cluster lights, footwell/overhead lights? I have done cluster and footwell/overhead lights and will possibly be doing the window switch lights in the near future. I just did a write up for the gauge cluster and I may go ahead and do a small easy one for the dome lights etc. The dome lights should be festoons that you can replace with a 39mm LED Festoon Bulb. The back footwell lights in the door for my car were 194's while the front footwell lights were festoons. If you plan to do the switches and not any of the other stuff, then I am no help to you as of right now, but if you have any questions regarding cluster swaps or footwell/overhead dome lights, I recently did it and have many pictures to hopefully help you out.

everything... i did more research on it and I guess for the cluster you need a few type B T6 bulbs. i want to know how many 3mm leds to buy and what else I need. I'd rather tackle this all in one weekend rather than one thing at a time. Are 850/70s interchangeable, ie the same?
