I just did mine today.  I used the lamps from superbrightleds.com.  I used their PN WLED-RHP5 for the gas, oil pressure, and voltage and their PN WLED-RHP for the oil temp.  If you still have the air temp, another WLED-RHP5  will work fine there.

What's the difference between the WLED-R5 and the WLED-RH5?

I assume you mean the RHP5.  The RHP5 is much brighter.  8500 mcd for the RHP5 vs 1400 mcd for the R5.

The match is really good.  The color is dead on and the brightness is quite nice.  I tried taking pictures but a digital camera can't do it justice.

be sure the get the one different bulb if you have the oil temp gauge.  if you have the air temp, don't worry about it

I had every intention of doing this on my CUSE2, but on the CUSE4 they are already v. bright - you can see the illumination in daylight, so won't bother. Anyone else noticed how bright the standard illumination is ont eh CUSE4?

I ordered em up last nite. I have the air temp gauge so I should be ok. I had the oil temp gauge on my last bike and it stays in the same spot the air temp looks. All the way pegged to the right.  They even shipped today.

CVUSTU,
I went to Advanced Auto and found the 194R replacement bulb, but it was not an LED.Is this the bulb that you used, and if so are you satisfied with the comparison to the Tach, and Speedo on brightness?
Thx.Sawyerghost

The bulbs from Advanced auto don't match the tach and speedo at all. Tho they are bright enough, they are way too light and aren't really a match at all. You can easily read the gauges. i ordered up the ones from Superbright bulbs..  I'll let you know what I think when i put them in.

Well the superbright LED's came today. I just put them in and they do look very bright and very red also. I think they should do the trick and they look like a good color match for the tach and speedo. We'll see later when it gets dark.
