Title: Well so much for that plan.....
Post by: MikeDundee on 03 May 2020, 11:49:45
Well bought LEDs for the speedo/dash off of fleebay, and guess what, despite the description they do not fit, found out why the clocks when lit were somewhat dim, two blown bulbs, trip to hellfords later....

Not even big enough to replace the larger bulbs...

Does not even fit in the smaller slot....

LEDs don't work that well in the Omega dash, and gives quite bright spots and dimly lit areas, due to the dash design, and LEDs available.

For reference with the main dash bulbs, eBay item below works fine

321633223550

These are fitted in mine, are dimmable as well and give an even light due to the multiple led positions.
