Heated Seat Trc/snow Buttons

[edeath]

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know the bulb types for the bottom switches on the console. My trc/snow buttons are no longer lit and i was thinking of making all 4 buttons lit blue as that is the colour of my stereo. Will probs do dials too.

So does anyone know the bulb type and where i can buy blue ones?

cheers,

Ed

Hey mate, hope the pic helps. But I did think the button had an orange lens, so might be a problem when converting to blue.

You can buy coloured bulbs, and fit into the holder as shown above, or you can now get LED's already made up..

Ive looked into this recaently. Both headed seat illumination and warning lights have orange tints to the lens, not the bulb. Passing a Blue or white light LED thru them just ends up with a simlar or 'off' orange glow to the white bulb. The only colour that shone thru ok was red.

I got the trc switch ones from here:

But be careful, some are different sizes.

as for the warning lights on the dash, i just fitted normal LEDs with resistors to fit,.
