What LED 74 bulb are you guys running in your gauges,
mainly the temp gauge? Getting ready to place a order for
some green ones. Thanks
 
I used the 74-HXP but you will want a HXP3 for the temp gauge I need to order one because the HXP isnt bright enough for temp gauge. I went w/ amber cause my bikes going candy orange but I am not happy w/ them maybe try red or blue they are cheap enough .
 
+1 on the x3 for temp gauge and hxp for everything else.
 
I originally went with (in red) a HP3 for the temp, a HP for the tach, and regular 74x for the speedo.

Temp was still kind of dim but that's due to the placement of the bulb, not much to be done about that. Tach was ok, but could be brighter. Speedo was rather dim as well. Later put HP3s in everything to much better results. Before the speedo had a noticeable brightness at the top and bottom and you couldn't really read the numbers toward the center of the dial. With the HP3's the light was much more even since they have 360* light output.

I'd go with HP3's in everything.
 
You didn't mention where you sourced your bulbs from and how much?
