  1. Always found 'Wonder wheels' to be the best, normally leave it on for around a minute for stubborn marks but has always done the trick for me
  2. Whoops sorry mate, will do it now, should have give me a nudge on there, normally the missus does that side of stuff
  3. Obviously its entirely up to you if you want to try and solder the smaller bulbs in but i have honestly never heard of any problems occurring with these bulbs in the past, i have had a set fitted to my own car for around a year now and am yet to encounter any problems. I am however perfectly happy to exchange any bulb that encounter a fault :)
  4. Will prob be on this evening if you have any probs, would just replace one bulb mate, no need to take rest out
  5. hi sorry for the delay, have been on hols for a few days, for the centre console i ended up desoldering smds from bulbs i had, was bit of a nightmare tbh, as far as i know you cant buy the smds off the bulbs seperatly (unless bought in bulk), think i only used about 9 (will hopefully have bulbs in there soon) Hi Dean, just seen your post, not sure if you have managed to get it working yet but looks like the connectors may need adjusting slightly (little positive/negative legs on bottom of bulb). might need straightening up abit, dark patch like this would only really be caused if full bulb was out. drop me a line if you need any help always found photobucket to be the best for uploading pics
  6. Cheers for that :) Yeah my bad took pic when i was trying different colours (might beable to see on pic i posted on page 1 that i had red in for fuel gauge) must have forgot to put blue bulb back in for photo thanks for pointing it out White looks sweet mind, glad ur happy
  7. I didnt use bulbs to convert mine as the bulbs that were available at the time werent bright enough to light it properly :( i ended up doing alot of soldering with individual SMDs to get it right. Sorry couldnt give a more straight forward answer :(
  8. Centre console is a bit more tricky, standard LEDs normally dont produce a wide enough light angle for full coverage and due to the lack of space its hard to fit much in there, What about doing dash white instead of blue? Here is mine, custom conversion with SMDs (due to bulbs not being bright enough this was done by soldering SMDS to replace the original bulbs) Sorry bout watermark (force of habit due to photos being used without permission :() Currently testing new bulbs to get the same effect.
  9. The only reason behind this is due to the fact that people will usually search for 'led dash kit' not for smds so it is purely to get the most out of search results. I will look at possibly changing the listing titles when it comes to relisting time. The kit in the first link consists of SMD bulbs, these have 5 points of light each emitting a 180 degree angle of light, LED bulbs are either a flat or domed top bulbs which give off a smaller and therefore less bright light coverage I cant say what bulbs the second link provides in the kit as i dont know. I do have other pictures available if anyone requires them, feel free to ask.
  10. hi, bit out of the blue but came across this thread whilst doing internet research, sorry if im breaking any rules, please forgive me (remove post if necessary). the first ebay link is actually my own listing, i would just like to confirm that the kits contain blubs that were researched to be the best for the lexus dash, we tried numerous bulbs before settling on these. They are not cheap led bulbs, they use extremely bright SMDs (not LEDs) once again im not trying to plug the link as its up to you what you buy, i just wanted to shed some light (excuse the pun) on the thread. thanks Steve
