Dashboard Bulbs

natt · 08-04-17, 04:55 PM

Noticed a few of the bulbs (mostly rev counter) arnt working on the clocks. Wheres the best place to source replacement bulbs? I haven't had the cluster out yet but I'm assuming it's the little twist in bulbs?

Thought of changing to LED whilst you're at it

Actually yes I have. Seems like the logical thing to do, less current pull etc.

I have done my dash, well worth it

I do not struggle to see the dials any more.

Unfortunately now one less excuse for speeding

Is fitting led bulbs a solder job of can direct replacements be had?

Being a newbie owner, I have a 91 Coupe, are the dash lamp leds all the same ?, if so to save me hunting what were the ones you used ?

Cheers and thanks in advance.
