JDC Gauge Cluster LED Conversion Kit
Are you tired of your dim gauge cluster, or have a few bulbs that need to be replaced? Why not upgrade to LED bulbs and never have to worry about them again? We have partnered with Diode Dynamics to bring the highest quality US-made components available on the market for an LED conversion kit. Diode Dynamics makes extremely high-quality LEDs that evenly disperse the light, resulting in a bright and hotspot-free gauge cluster. We offer a do-it-yourself kit for those that are comfortable swapping the LED to your factory light bulb base, or a full plug & play kit for those that would rather simply remove the old bulbs and replace them with pre-assembled LED's using a Mitsubishi OEM base for a guaranteed perfect fit. Read more below.
Applications:
- 03-06 Evo 8/9.
- We have only confirmed this kit for USDM Models, JDM models may need a few extra bulbs, please verify before ordering.
Kit Options:
-
DIY Kit: This kit includes the LED bulbs and will require you to remove the LED from the base and swap it into the factory base. This is a pretty simple process that anyone should be able to do with very basic tools and can save you money over buying a plug-and-play kit. You can find an easy-to-follow write-up on how to swap the bulbs here.
-
Plug & Play Kit: This kit doesn't require any modification and can be installed simply by removing the factory bulbs and putting the LED bulbs back in their place. We do the conversion to the OEM base in-house to make it an easier installation.

Why is the Plug & Play kit more expensive?
- Let us explain what is covered in the cost of the plug & play kit. Since the OEM Mitsubishi bulbs require a special base for use in the cluster, each LED bulb has to be swapped to a new OEM Mitsubishi base. The cost of new bulbs from Mitsubishi is $96.69, which doesn't include the cost of the LED bulbs or the labor that is required to make the conversion. We do the work to offer an easy plug & play installation for those that aren't comfortable doing the conversion themselves. Each bulb is individually tested before shipping.
Warranty:
- Diode Dynamics 3-year warranty on both DIY & Plug & Play Kits.
