I plan to change all the lamps in the back of my cluster and each pod for white LEDs, does anyone know the correct fitment name, size, spec etc?

 

Many thanks

Don't bother with LED bulbs for your clusters - just fill the space behind the gauges with white LED strips as it makes the spread of light sooo much better!

Dash uses 501 or T10 bulbs, as Si mentioned you will get black spots using leds alone in the 4 ports that have bulb holders, so add either 2x 24cm led strips or a continuous one around the whole inside of the binnacle.

Drivers pod neo wedges T5, aircon neo wedges T4, but you wont get a direct replacement for the wiper symbol or the hazard. HTH

 

Also i dont find the neo wedges for the aircon that good a spread of light, however white is probably the best colour to give the best effect spread.

That reminds me, I must drop off my dash clocks off to you! I'm on the IoW on Thursday next week.....

Do you still turn them on with the switch on the pod first?

I have all the rare bits you can't find :tongue::tongue:

 

Yes they are wired into the dash the same as a bulb, so light switch on first then you can use the remote to change colour

Wiring a strip in to the binnacle i use the two metal L prongs at the bottom of the dash that normally light the back lit bulbs ( which i remove) that way you dont need to mess with the bulb holders.

As you look at the dash the left prong is the feed +

 

For the strips, just search ebay, they are all 12v

Anything like that will do the job, but remember you would have to remove the 4x 501 bulbs in the rear to get the best effect from a colour change
