Hi all,

Just tidying up a few bits and bobs on my new 300tdi. Whilst cleaning up and Hammerite-ing my bootfloor last night I noticed the lack of light in the rear interior of my truck due to a blown bulb I'm hoping.

Does anyone know what size bulbs are in the interior lights? The fronts fine, but I've found the below 2 pack of very bright looking bulbs. Anyone know if these will fit? The lady on eBay is not particularly helpful....

Many thanks in advance!

The standard factory fitted bulb is 37.5mm long, so the eBay led item clearly states the length is 38mm long this item will fit.
Just remember led's are polarity dependant so if it doesn illuminate first time just reverse it in its holder

before you buy a bulb pull the holder out, its easy enough to just pop out. i had issues with mine when i bought my disco turned out to be one of the wires wasnt connected to the back of it. popped it back on been working fine ever since.

Yeah, but most people would find a bulb change would fix it, only you would have a wiring problem!
