Speedo & climate control lighting
I've seen the odd photo here and there of people putting different LED's in the speedo and climate control unit. Which LED's are needed for this?
I know there's a company that you can buy the kits from but I refuse to pay $30+ dollars (or $7 a bulb!) when they're about £0.50 on ebay each, if you know the ones to get. Trouble is, I don't know which ones. Are they NeoWedges? Thanks! |
Nevermind, found them.
Faces & Gauge Needles: B8.4 1.5W Bulbs Warning lights: 286 1.2W Bulbs IndicatorsW3W 3W bulb (in a cap) The switches and ambient lights in the cabin are either B8.4's or 286's. I'll have to find out. But for the meantime, there we are - no need to fork out ridiculous money. |
I know it's not what you want to hear, but I'd stick with sportcarleds.com for the twist lock LED bulbs as the eBay bulbs are of varying quality. I bought some of the cheap ones for my daily driver last year and they started acting up after only a couple hours of use. The bulbs from sportcarleds have been in my 986 for years with no issues. ;)
Same for the surface mount diodes for the switches and climate control. Order from a reputable electronics supplier like mouser.com. There is a link in one of my threads... |

Which bulbs are used in the switches and climate control anyway, out of curiosity? |
