LED gauge bulbs

i have white LED bulbs in my gauges, and two of them are blinking. ive been told to bend the metal contacts so they touch better. can anybody tell me exactly how to do this? i dont want to take my dashboard apart anymore, im sick of it

You don't just bend them out because eventually they will get loose again. The best way is to stick something under the little terminal's center, like a tooth pic and push down on it. This will re-shape the terminal into a little hump instead of flat against the base of the bulb. This shape will stay that way and not flaten out again and should fix all your flickering problems.
