Default Again - dash illumination colour

Please feel free to correct me, but I don't think this has been mentioned before

Got a few dead bulbs in dash switches (MY00) so whipped a couple out at the weekend to have a look what bulbs I need, cos I really take offence at £6 each at the dealers...

So took the bulbs out of the fog switch and then went on the Maplin website. Looks like these:

or these:

though I think the size is out (by a factor of 100!) in the description of the second ones.

Then I noticed these:

Hmm, these may be better than the LEDs in terms of price and brightness??

Anyone tried?

Don't bother with LEDs for behind the heater controls - I got some and they weren't powerful enough to light the whole panel - others might have had more success though.

Cheers mate, might also get some of the coloured ones and see how effective they are. Hopefully they may be brighter than LEDs
