One thing to note that I discovered when switching over to LED bulbs in my '99. If the bulb has a red base, it is polarized and extremely hard to find. I was unable to find one locally at any store and ended up going to a JY and pulling a couple. And I discovered if you remove the bulb, it won't work period after replacing just the bulb in the socket. YMMV.

Excellent tutorial. Very well done.
I had to replace the bulbs for my 2000 Ranger XLT back in 2023. I see your automatic is equipped with a tach, of course my 5 spd manual isn't. :rolleyes::smile: These are the bulbs I used, purchased on Amazon- |
