There's a picture of one in Useful Info, there's a list of bulbs in Technical Info but the one piece of info I need is missing....

What's the dash bulb type and wattage?

I'd rather not take the dash apart to get one out to take to the motor factors....

[Tefal]

i'm doing a LED conversion possibly tomorrow so will have the bulbs to hand if no-one can answer for you

[Welung666]

Tefal, where did you get your LED's from? and how much?

ebay,

these are only plug n play ones for the dash and centre console. will be doing the headlight switch and push buttons at a later date

[Dazzler]

They are the same as your side light bulbs but only 1.5w instead of 5w.
I assume your on about the ones that illuminate the speedo etc....??

[JasonH]

Actually it's the bulbs that light the warning lamps. I need to add the towbar flasher bulb.

[Tefal]

that would be one of these then

[JasonH]

That's the one.

Now what's it called and what's the wattage - I don't want a sun tan from a warning bulb

I asked the seller if he has a set for a 2000- Omega and he has replied saying that the above kit should fit fine :-/

Can anyone confirm please, thanks

[Tefal]

mines a 2000 also, so will let you know the outcome. there are 12 leds bulbs in total

[Tefal]

That's the one.

pm me your address and i'll send you a couple, i found some from when i did the my vectra conversion

[Tefal]

got the speedo out and have found there are two types.

1.1W and 2.0W. just depends on what bulb is needed for slot 12 HTH

[Tefal]

it wont work on a 2000+

the kit i bought which is above listed is a waste of time
the four bulbs for the speedo are fine, but the ones for the TID dont show it up that well during the day and are green. so i'm gonna change them for some red ones as i know they will work.


i imagine that the climate control can be converted. will take a look at it when i convert the TC, Alarm, Boot Release etc buttons.

The Omega dash is designed to be lit up with incadescent bulbs, not LEDs, so LEDs aren't suited.  In particular, the gay blue ultrabrights end up with all switches dazzling you, and those using lightguides barely working.
