Led's For Dash

[ciarancassidy]

hey I have seen the kits on eBay for changing the orange dash to blue, item number==> 270328079919 , would it be cheaper to just buy the right leds and fit them? and what ones are needed?

[aztecbandit1]

If you just want to do the clocks matey, you need 3x501 Leds and 2xT5 Leds, try and find the inverted wide angle ones as there pretty good, i did mine ages ago now and never had any problems with them :)

Theres only 5 you need to change mate think there all blue holders looking at the back of the clocks the 3x501's are for the big centre dial and the 1xT5 is for the fuel gauge side and the other T5 is the rev counter side? The bulbs you need to swap have little orange rubber caps on them so you know which are the ones that need to be changed :D

To do what i did to mine and 2D's above mate you'll only need the 3x501 leds to get the rainbow effect or you could try different colour like Phil further up :D

Sounds like you have a nice motor mate and look forward to seeing how your modding comes on :D

Cheers, Aztecbandit. 1 of my blue LED dash bulbs has started flickering (think its just loose) but the light spread is crap so if im gonna open the dials again i'm gonna replace them all and was having trouble finding some decent led's. All bought now :D

Really need to change my photo - car doesn't really look like that anymore.

[FuntimePhil]

my first green on the left has started being a little tempremental. gonna have to have a look why i get time. cant see how it works loose tho?

[ciarancassidy]

i am just sticking some photos of my car on the comp now so will be sticking them in my angel eyes thread in about 15 mins

[brice1ie]

Well seeing were all showing are dashes...

Didnt wanna be left out!

:winky:

Got my bulbs from them super lum guys in the states.. well worth it.. ( i think)

[ciarancassidy]

has anyone changed the clock and a/c controls to blue aswell and also the ignition ring? what bulbs are needed to do these, planning on changing my headunit so figured while i am at it i will change the colour of the lights there.

[sparkystav]

Its been done, there LOADS of threads about it.

If you do a search theres various options.

The ignition ring is just a T5 bulb mate, but the A/C unit is a wee bit harder. Some have use a LED strip, but I couldn't get mine to fit right, so I butchered the LED holder and a T5 LED and wired it in that way. Its not that bright though so will be changing it shortly
