ZX-9R Instrument cluster??

Post by StevieD »

Hi
Does anyone know if it's possible to make the lights on the instrument cluster brighter or can LED's be added to it to make it brighter (within the dials that is)

Cheers

Flip your visor open and jam a torch in ya gob, works wonders. Also doubles as a directional headlight :kuda:

I did it with my zrx after it went through 4 or 5 of the normal bulbs in a few months after I got it. Apparently they run a bit hot in the rex, anyway there are a couple of different brands of led with exactly the same pin configuration, and they've been fine now for over 2 years, from memory there were 2 sizes in the cluster T10 & T5. I ended up getting green, though I would have preferred white, there were none available at the time.

Cheers
Matt
