Title: Blown dash bulb
Post by: yatesDELTA on 29 March 2008, 19:43:24

Hey all

We have a blown bulb in the dash, its the one that lights up the thingy that mesures the revs (cant remember its name lol)

Is this a special bulb? or just a LED?  where can i get one from and is taking the bash of a dificult thing to do?

thanks in advance

Easy job, bulb is a couple of quid from dealer, though I'd take the blown one in to ensure they give you the right one (only 10mins to get dash off)

yeah that lol

i would be worried if it were a newer model if htis disassembly could make it look like a clocked car (its not for sale lol, but thinking of the future)

But i highly doubt anyone would htink a car with 210K on it is clocked :p

See Maintenece Guides ;)

10mins if you dont drop the screw down the air intake - SO CLOSE AIR INTAKES!
