    Dashligh bulb kits

    OK, seen a few of these on Ebay. As one of my bulbs have gone, I have decided to change the lot from ornage to blue as my car is white.

    Are they just twist in jobs, or soldered on?

    Also, is there any films to cut/replace, or is it just a case of changing bulbs?

    Lastly, anyone done this and got pics??

    Cheers guys

    i've done this before..

    the bulbs are just twist in ones, i bought mine from ebay years ago!

    you have to remove faces and sand down the back of them (to remove orange colour filter)..

    you will also need to remove each needle and sand the back of them down. (phase 1's have orange needles, phase 2 have white needles)

    this is a pic of mine -

    the clockset is very easy to remove.. doing all the bits is tricky, personally i'd buy a spare set and do it on them incase you break it!
