I don't Fing know, not my listing. Probably a "shotgun" listing for different Apps. :dry:

Where did you get them? Ebay? How did you search, speedometer bulbs?
Don't worry about heat! LED's are cool when lit

Luckily I searched around somemore! Found these for $5.95 to my door? Can't get any cheaper than that. Came out of California.
A little taller than the Stanley OEM's I don't have hooked up yet, but test fitted them all. 20 bulbs. As long as there not delicate and blow when you hit a bump or go over 8-9 grand RPM's
From ebay:

Livin in "CheektaVegas, NY
Went thru 25 of these in 40 yrs.
I SOLD OUT! THE KAW BARN IS EMPTY.

They are such a pain in the ass to change I would never put another incandescent bulb in a speedo or tach. First quality LED is the only way to go. And stay away from ebay, most everything on there is junk.
