You cant just replace the nozzles with out having them pop tested and if you get full bodied injectors chances are they will want your cores. What is all done to your truck?

My High Beam indicator stopped working a while ago, so I pulled the gauge cluster, and swapped it with a matching bulb on the back side, and re-installed. I had high beam indicator, but no Wait To Start light. I bought a new bulb, and replaced the bulb in the wait to start hole. All works fine now. If you pull your cluster, you need to remove the dash trim, and 4 screws i believe. The most important part it to loosen, and disconnect the cable that runs from the gear indicator, to the steering column (if an Auto of course). I didn't the first time, and it took some trickery to reattach the wire to the end piece.
