Dash light replacement --My experience 850

Congrats! I did the same thing about 8 months ago. The install wasn't that bad - especially with the pictures from Bay13 to help! However, I ran the lights at full brightness - two of the new, just replaced bulbs burned out in 3 days.

After cursing the ebay place I got the bulbs from, I took one to my local auto parts store - they sold me 4 new bulbs for a few dollars. I installed them, lowered the brightness to about 80%, and haven't had a problem yet.

Hopefully yours will last longer than mine did......
