Whats the best LED bulb to put behind my gauges?

I really want to have the light to spread out evenly. Has anyone changed their lights and have brighter spots in some places than others.

Just buy reverse glow gauges. that is your best bet. And i think you can even get TRD gauges for the 3rd gen.

Since you are out of Newbie territory, search this. I count 3 threads on the first page in this forum section that pretty much answer all of your q's.
Dont get reverse glow gauges...kinda fruity (couldnt find the rainbow smiley, so that sums it up too)

There are many threads with the removal of a 96-98 dash. Put the two together to get the concept/idea and voila!
