Will this LED Bulb Kit fit my Vanagon, and does it work with both automatic and manual shifters?

This LED Bulb Kit is specifically designed for Vanagons with automatic shifters from model years 1980 to 1991. It is not compatible with manual shifter models, so be sure your Vanagon has an automatic transmission before ordering. The kit offers a direct-fit solution, making it easy to upgrade your shifter lighting for improved visibility and modern performance.

How easy is it to install the LED Bulb Kit on my Vanagon? Do I need to worry about wiring or polarity?

The LED Bulb Kit is designed to be a simple, plug-and-play replacement for your original shifter bulbs with no special tools required. Just remove the old bulbs and insert the new LEDs. These LEDs are polarity sensitive, which means if they don't light up initially, just flip them around and they will work perfectly. Full instructions are included to make installation quick, and you don't need any electrical experience.

What are the benefits of upgrading to this LED Bulb Kit over standard bulbs, and is the upgrade durable?

Upgrading your Vanagon's automatic shifter lighting with this LED Bulb Kit offers several advantages: LEDs are more energy-efficient, provide brighter and more consistent light, and generate far less heat than traditional bulbs—all of which help extend the lifespan of your shifter console components. The build quality ensures sturdiness and a long service life, and the kit is designed to be environmentally friendly. Many owners appreciate the clear, modern look and don't have to worry about frequent replacements. Plus, the kit comes with a warranty to back up its quality and your satisfaction.

LED bulbs have several advantages over traditional incandescent bulbs. They are much higher efficiency and consume between 50% and 90% less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs. They also last a lot longer. Most LEDs are rated to 50,000 hours, as opposed to the average of 1000 hours for incandescent. They have superior light quality with less lumen deterioration. They are safer to operate because they generate less heat and run cool to the touch, therefore greatly reducing the risk of burns or fires. They are also more environmentally friendly with recyclable components and much greater lifespan (which can save up to 50 incandescent bulbs over the bulb's lifespan!). Finally, they are built with sturdy components and do not have any fragile filaments or glass—all of which equals greater durability.

Kit includes:
• (2) Bulbs and holders for automatic shifter - Available in white, blue, green and red.

Installation note: Bulbs are polarity sensitive, if they are not working, take them out and rotate them 180 degrees.

Warranty note: We bench test every single LED bulb as a quality control measure—when they leave GoWesty, they are operational. It is possible to short out these bulbs during installation. Please understand that if you fry a bulb installing it, it will not be covered under warranty.
