Not there yet, been raining most of the day
I did get my Christmas tree up tho! That also has some lights not working

Here we go! Looks good! The rear fog is a bit dimmer than the rest, but 100% better! Now for the hevac button! Think they should be a bit easier

No, standard lights, turned up to max brightness for the photo. I've replaced the cruise and rear fog switch bulbs with ones kindly supplied by @Grrrrrr

I think they are both supposed to be green? At least thats what came out

Cruise light should be green just checked, and found my fog light back light has gone, why did i have to go and look

kermit_rr · Dec 22, 2020

Hevac lights a bit more complicated

the fan/auto button, drivers temp adjustment, AC and recirc button don't light up. The bulb tests ok and i swapped to the other side to be sure

Think there must be a bit missing the carries the light from the bulb

So no one knows if they did not put it into P or set the park brake, ( which I know a lot of seppos do not use .)

Sounds like a bunch of people who should not have licences or ambulance chasing. How many people get run over each year in a std manual gearbox when they have not set the handbrake properly?

Cheers

They have little green condoms on; the bulbs themselves are actually white.

Hmm, really?

Condoms on mine. Definitely condoms. Baked on, over the years, too!

domino · Dec 22, 2020

I did replace mine with the bulbs and carefully peeled off and reused the existing condoms. Also managed to get actual green bulbs for one or two but I still have 2 back-light that's white/yellow that should be green.

kermit_rr · Dec 22, 2020

Wouldn't you know it, the cruise telltale doesn't work now!! Hopefully I've just dislodged the connection
