Yup, Gen1s use 194 base bulbs in the brow. Youll need to buy "raw" led bulbs, if you buy bulbs that are designed to work normally in place of a regular 194 incandescent lamp they dont look the same, youll need to get rid of the resistor box for the brow lights, you can also run regular amber 194s that way.
