wish I had done this sooner

what a difference

replaced everyone with led bulbs

but erm erm i broke the bloody clock one, typical

will do a search and try and find the part number for just the bulb

see it has two pieces of wire from the bulb wrapped round the holder

bought a new hazard light switch for a fiver off ebay and was genuine , lights up now but doesn't go on and off when the button is pressed , only shows the hazard light on the dashboard

wished to say thanks to everyone for always sharing and allowing me to get all the bulbs

total cost £20 quid

The Hazard switch only lights up when the lights are on, the switch doesn't change brightness or go on / off when activated.

I'm assuming that the one that does the boot light is suitable for tail lights too but how does that work with the stop lights? Aren't those bulbs usually brighter than the tail lights?

to be honest I've only looked at the interior bulbs and not gone into the exterior ones with any great thought yet

this bulb wouldn't be suitable for stop tail light

ref to the brake lights they have to be double element so assume the leds can't do brake, but indicator , fogs and reverse only

unless there is a specially made bulb for the stop tail light

must admit the boot light is considerably brighter than the old bulb and now have every bulb replaced by leds on the interior

biggest difference is the heater controls

what happened to the pics I'm in the process of sourcing bulbs now from ebay would very much like to see how it looks when all bulbs changed over to led ones
