To date, the challenge of matching a VDO gauge to the stock cluster has yielded prohibitively expensive options and far from acceptable matches. 42 Draft Designs has designed and manufactured a lighting LED system unlike any other. Their units feature a standard 194 wedge base and custom molded diffuser. Inside, nine 430 nm LEDs emit a bright, crisp light matching the wavelength of the stock instrument cluster. To power the LED, a custom power regulator is used. 42's power regulator incorporates a series of resistors and diodes used to filter the raw input voltage and provide a more reliable power source. Their product requires no modification to the gauge!
PLEASE NOTE: This is the perfect match LED upgrade kit for the single gauge solutions only. If you are looking for the perfect match LED's for your triple gauge applications please see part number DD42-011.
