Does the 1200 even have a dimmer? The dashes are plenty dim enough as it is lol.

I didn't know about the dimmer for years, never tried to look for one.
Most of my leds work with the dimmer switch but a couple dont, must be a different type. Leds light up the dash much brighter than factory bulbs

What size bulbs are these? Are they T5? And how many are needed to change all 1200 coupe dash lights?

Depends on how many lights you are replacing ie: warning lights, optional clock etc.
Mine looked more like the T8 - T10.

T10's some 1200 have dimmer some don't! I bought a 10 pack think it takes 6 without park break light if u have that! And I think t4's are the others in indercator I think my dash I think had a few differant types or maybe it was another dash, can't remember! May depend on dash to ie ute, sedan, coupe

Search t4 globes on eBay and t10 globes all differant types and colours! Keep in mind that stock dashes also have light rings that are a light green colour as well so this will slightly change the colour! I bought my from virtural village gl

Are they wedge bulbs or typical bulbs like a brake light?

So what lights the actual gauges? Will it change from green?

Judging by this link... http://datsun1200.com/modules/mediawi ... ighting_System#Dash_Lamps

It is wedge bulbs for the majority and the indicator signals are the typical bulb type.

Can anyone confirm this?

Also what type do you guys think would be better? The concave style or the "7 LED" style

Or it probably wont make a difference?

Went with these for the indicators

and these for the rest.

$17.42 AU. Hope they look good!

I just purchased 10 T10 wedge LEDs from Jaycar $14 AUD, going to do the same thing - upgrade my dash. The tech man showed me two styles, one that is directional and one that spreads. He said the one that spreads the light would work better.

Also looked at Autobarn and Supercheap but they want around 5 bucks for just 2 bulbs.
