Question

I am sure this has been asked before, but:

The standard dash board bulbs in my 1997 UK Turbo are pants - very difficult to read some of the dials.

Has anyone got experience of changing the bulbs/colour as per Gecko's products - I am not very electrically minded so any help will be very much appreciated.

Thumbs up

You may find that just changing to new bulbs has the desired effect. Ordinary bulbs quickly blacken with age, and then their light output is severely restricted. Yours are what, 6 years old? and I'll bet they are almost gone.
Change 'em for some new ones, and see the difference:
