99-02 -- Twist-Loc Bulbs, Very easy
03+ -- Soldered Incandescent Bulbs

I have done a few 03+ Blue LED Clusters.
Its a lot cheaper than buying a new cluster.
Or I can solder a new bulb in for you for cheap.

PM me for details

Yeah you can run smaller LED's with a wider viewing angle, like these....

k, new question....put the denali cluster in last night, everything works fine, but the idle was off for a little bit, very rough idle, and the RPM needle was jumping.....is there an idle relaern procedure necessary, or does the cluster even have anything to do with that???? also feels like shifts have changed....and when you let off the throttle and get back on, it hesitates...

doesn't seem like cluster could have anything to do with this, unless some of the trans info or rear end gear info is linked to the cluster somehow...

looks damned good tho!!

I am pretty sure the info is stored in the PCM and not the Cluster (except for mileage).

All else fails, put your old cluster back in and see if it changes back.


Post up pics of how yours looks when installed!!!
