Can anyone advise which lamp bulbs (the 2W push fit ones x3) are used behind the instruments (speedo etc).
Is it these?

Got to do mine too, but, I am sure i read on here sometime ago that they have a black body on the bulbs that go behind the clocks.

I don't think that thay are the ones, when I took my dash out to fix the TID, the bulbs had a flat peace at the bottom with two prongs that make a contact when you twist in, I got mine in Halfords for the TID (509T) but the ones behind the clocks are bigger in size and are green.

I've got one car with its climate panel in pieces so don't really want to take t'other one apart!

may just leave that though, you have to take out the radio and cage and ram your hand up behind to pull or push a lever :o

Indeed you do! Did that at the weekend. There are a few gotchas along the way which I'll happily helpout with when you do it.
How is it getting the instrument panel out? The electrical connector sounds a bit odd.

Hi,
I think you'll find that the bulb in the picture is in it's yellow holder and pulls out and is a type 501,(looks like an old flash bulb) :).
Hope this helps,
Pete :y.

Brilliant thanks LK. Was that from a dealer? How much (I'm expecting pennies for a 501 style)
Were there three of them in the panel?
Cheers
Ian
BTW the sealant has worked brill - ta!

Reading this with interest - I need to do same at some point...

You'd think dealers would have these aplenty.
Climate panel bulbs (you need 5 of them)
' oh we've got 3, and I can see there is another one in Newbury....' >:(
