Hi,
I've recently purchased some T5 blue LED bulbs to match with my Pioneer CD player I've installed. There are 2 different socket colors behind the meters and according to Nissan's service manual, the brown ones are 1.4W sockets and the black ones are 3W sockets.
The problem is, the LED bulbs I've installed only light up in the brown sockets nissan sentra 2004 dashboard illumination -- posted image.. Is it possible to get bulbs that will light up in a 3W socket?
Thank you very much for your help!

An LED is a polarized device.  A light bulb is not.  Remove the ones that do not light up and turn them 180 degrees and reinsert.

I think I've already tried but I'll be trying again today. The real problem is, the bulbs I have measure 20mm or so and the old incandescent ones are about 17-18mm. I think I'll have some trouble because it looks like I won't be able to lock the little V2 sockets. But anyway, thank you very much for your help!
