This image shows an LED gauge cluster conversion kit and its accompanying instruction/reference sheet for the 1967-68 Mercury Cougar. The blister-packed kit, made by HiPo Parts, LLC (kit number FC6768MC-EL2, marketed as a "Factory Color" Series II LED Light Conversion Kit), contains an assortment of LED replacement bulbs in white, green, and red, along with springs and socket hardware. A WCCC (West Coast Classic Cougar) inventory label shows part/stock number 26923 with warehouse location F4H17. The underlying instruction sheet, dated Rev. 16-06W and copyrighted 2009 by HiPo Parts, LLC, shows top-view diagrams of the Cougar instrument cluster (including a version without tachometer) indicating bulb locations. A Symbol Key identifies 3 SMD bulb locations, 1 SMD bulb with rectifier, 5 SMD bulb locations, and positions that should NOT be replaced with LEDs, with symbol fill indicating bulb color. A Bulb Key lists five bulb functions: 1) Illumination Lamp, 2) Right Turn Signal Lamp, 3) High Beam Lamp, 4) Left Turn Signal Lamp, 5) Warning Lamp. A prominent warning states not to replace the alternator warning lamp with an LED bulb. The sheet helps installers place each LED type in the correct cluster socket.
