Hi All,

I have a 2000 freelander 1.8i Softback.

First question - at night the freelander controls appear to be rather badly illuminated. My trip meter/odometer is not back lit, should it be? Also the heater controls are not back lit should they be?!

Merry Christmas all

Regards,
Speedyveg

Yes when headlights/sidelights on

They are dim though and controls being dark on mine make them difficult to see in daylight

The heater control bulbs are easy to get at. From memory the knobs just pull off and expose the bulbs?

Click to expand...

Pull the knobs and the panel has two screws, IIRC. The bulbs are £3 from a dealer.
