So half the lights in your dash are out... or maybe your brake lights are kinda wimpy, or your dome light doesn't light up enough to find your keys on the seat...
Well, it sounds like you're a prime candidate for some BUGGMAN plugin LED's.

I have plugin LED's for the older style gauge clusters (95-04ish) my 5smd LED's $3ea+sh. These LED's also work in several other applications like dome lights, older hvac panel lights, glovebox lights, 3rd brake lights & more.
These work well for most applications using a 194, 168, 906, etc. size bulb.

For the newer gauge clusters (04ish & up) my 1smd LED's work well $1.50ea+sh. These are the small LED's that also fit the newer hvac panels with the small blue bulb holders & in the gauge cluster "idiot lights" like the high beam indicator, battery, turn signal indicators, etc.

If you're wanting to upgrade your brake lights to LED, I've got you covered there too. My red 3157's are crazy bright. These run $30 a pair +sh.

For front turn signals, I have some great 3157 yellow led's that blow away all the other LED's I've tested. These run $25 a pair +sh.

One thing to note when running LED brake lights or turn signals is that you will likely need to upgrade the flasher module to the EP-27 electronic flasher. They can be found online (I tend NOT to recommend the no-name overseas parts) or at most good auto parts stores. Make sure the flasher has EP-27 marked on it because some parts store people will just give you the OEM flasher which won'y help the hyperflashing or other LED related issues.

If you want more light from your reverse lights, I have some crazy bright LED's for them too. They run $25 a pair +sh.

How about license plate LED's? I got ya covered there too, $6 a pair +sh.

Pics/videos to come as I'm not at my computer to find my pictures right now.

If there's anything you need LED's for, just let me know... if I don't have them I may be able to source them for you.

Pretty late now & I'm pooped so no pics yet... but how about some VIDEOS for your viewing pleasure? 
These are some of my plugin's in action:







Unfortunately I can't find any more of the amber/white switchbacks, but I do have some amber 3157's that are as bright if not brighter than these & I'm just about to unleash a switchback mod that uses the same yellow 3157's & a white COB led (slight mod needed to install but nothing too difficult)

That first video is confusing for me as my turn lights are on the inside of the headlights, those side ones are just markers for me.

Do you have the 3157 amber for those?

the turns on my expo are in the outer lenses, i know some of the rangers have turns in with the headlights, my new 3157 yellow led's work in both 3157 applications.

for the guys that have use the smaller bulbs 194, 168, 906, etc will work with my new t10 base cob led's or my 5smd "cluster" led's

So the Ranger (my model at least) has constant running lights (when turned on)  next to the grille (3157), and the corner orange housed lights (194)

When the indicators are used, the one next to the grille flashes while the outer one stays the same (unless the blinker mod is performed) On my list....



Mine aren't very orange (amber) (3157) as most of the plastic film from the bulbs has flaked off -  so, the 3157 in that section, got a good amber replacement? :)

Do you have any "red" variants for the map-lights on the OHC with the fold down pocket by chance?
