Ron Burgundy Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 i have been thinking about purchasing one of these kits but im not to sure if there junk or hard to put in? have any of you stumble across these?http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HONDA-CBR600RR-CBR-600-600RR-LED-KIT-GAUGE-BLUE-07-08_W0QQitemZ390022419933QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotorcycles_Parts_Accessories?hash=item390022419933&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245&_trkparms=72%3A727%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exSRAaron Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 i know theres a guy on 600rr.net that does something like that, you can pick from a bunch of different colors, etc. But i think his cost more. maybe someone else has some input on this kit tho.

cattmouch33 Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 That's something I want to do to my 05 zx6r. You have to know how you solder and work with small connections. Be sure to watch the polarity when taking them out so you can put them back in the right way. I read up on it and it's not to hard of a job just a lil time consuming.

Ron Burgundy Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 i kinda figured it would be a lil time consuming, but i think im going read up on it like you said so i know what im doing when i get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natedogg624 Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 (edited) for kawi's yes you have to solder because you guys have ~7 different LED's on a circuit board. for only yamaha's (maybe zukes) you don't need to solder at all --we have 2-3 led bulbs. i just figured out what led's it took, (#74 type slim wedge base bulb) and its a simple twist lock and installeasy.

phugitive Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 (edited) No they are easy to put in all they are is blue leds that plug in in place of the bulbs in your cluster. I wanted leds in my gages instead of incandesent to save energy so I went to Auto Zone all they had was amber leds so my gages are yellow.To clarify I don't know what this kit is for sure but I do know that colored led bulbs are avaliable for your cluster and you can get them at the auto parts store or on line.

phugitive Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I would call first because our advanced auto didn't have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phugitive Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 (edited) The led bulb you are looking for is a 194, I bought 194a a standing for amber because that was all they had.Make sure your bike uses bulbs as I am not familiar with every bike and year.
