And, did you have any trouble with the #24 bulbs fitting into the sockets behind the gauge cluster? How did that work out for you? Any advice to give here?

the bulbs fit in just fine , just make sure you put the wires on each side like striker did , and also if you take a pliers ( i used needle nose) and grab the bulb and wiggle it you should be able to save the bulbs and not break them if you ever decide to go back ... also for some reason on my cluster i kept on blowing the fuse ... but i went and put one bulb at a time to see which one was crossed but none of them blew the fuse after that , so i dont know if that happened to anyone else or why this happened besides the + and - touching at one point ....
also i forgot to take pictures but i will later ( tomorrow )

Oh jeez, this could turn out to be troublesome... Which fuse did you blow, and what did you do to make it stop blowing?

dash board illum ... its a 7.5 under the dash its 3rd from the left bottom roll.
i dont know why it was blowing , after putting each bulb it independently they didnt blow , so i probally just didnt twist the sockets all the way back into place. again ill take some photos tonight for yall
