Hi all
Does anyone know if the milometer has illumination when the lights are on. If so what bulbs does it take ?

There is but the LCD backlight is dimmed once the lights are turned on. There's a good post here that covers what you need and more :

Those genuine LR bulbs are expensive for what they are, you can find LED kits: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Land-Rov...strument-Panel-Bulbs-Set-TD5-V8-/282331806249 and get done with it

Ok it was freezing .
I got the cluster out and removed the bulb.
New one now ordered .
Consulted rave reference heater and proceeded to remove complete centre of dash .
Only to find you can change the bulb in about 2 mins and you only need to remove 2 screws.
