LED strip lights for gauges anyone have experience

I have some led strip lights and have test fit them to my gauges. I decided not to use them because of the amount of heat being generated.

Since I have to wait for an exhaust solution I'm wondering whether I should revisit this.

Has any one done this and what were your results?

Certainly the light would be much better, see pic.

Again I worry about the heat.

Looking forward to comments.

There would be less heat than with incandescents, and if you dim it back down some, the heat production will go down also.

I haven't done that yet to either the Cougar or the Malibu, but there's pics of several conversions in the Interior subforum at TCCoA.COM .
