since then have changed the center console bulbs with led's but not got any pics, baz

AFAIK you supposed to send down the leds to get rid of the patchy sort of look :cuckoo:

Otherwise looks pretty god :norty:

I don't know if it's the photo mate, but I'm not too impressed, but I think it may just be the photo as the red moving arm seems very dull too..?

Have you got any more shots?

its the photo, the needles are brighter, but im still not really happy with them, im in theprocess of getting a new set ofclocks to cut out the green light filter and replace itwith a blue one, but cheap clocks are quite hard to find!!

I've read somewhere on here somebody else did this, they replaced all the bulbs with bright coloured LED ones, and they looked awesome. Think it was on a newage though, I'll have a dig around and see if I can find the pictures...

I TRIED :(
 
i tried to change the bulbs in my 2000 uk model it has the same dash as yours...but i wanted LED white to match with my gauges but there seems to be a green backing on the clocks so when i did put them in i got a funny green colour :wonder: so i just left them normal now

i would like to change them someone said mayve lockwood dials might make a difference....

i bought some blue leds for mine. they look brilliant. the pic really doesnt do it justice. The leds i got werent the same shape though. they were shaped so that it doesnt concentrate the light in to one place. THe dials and heater panel are white lockwood ones btw.
