Well the GTX of that year uses the #57 which is a brass base bulb with push and turn bayonet lugs. My Duster has the "grain of wheat" all glass bulb which just pushes in the socket. I'll try to dig up the paperwork on the bulbs today and post the info. I'll note though I do not like how hot the headlamp switch gets running the new dash bulbs and will look into the cooler LED's when time permits.

I wanted to see how they work/look before i spend $30 some $ on new bulbs. my opinion is they are amazing! even with one bulb it lights up a ton! i just ordered the rest to complete my guage cluster links http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayIS...T#ht_1642wt_913 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayIS...T#ht_1741wt_959

I am worried about them melting or over heating the back of the instrument cluster. [img]http://www.imgur.com/hxlGUJt.gif[/img] 4-speed 3:54 Dana 13.01 @107.93 with street tires (not hooking up)

I didn't want to go that high with the stock system so I went with 168's - they are a watt or watt and a half higher than the 194. Not a lot brighter, but brighter. Ride eternal, shiny and chrome
