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?

 

Second one is the one you need

 

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
