Thanks

I would consider warm white leds, they are never broke as bulbs do, so you wouldn't need to disassemble console ever again.

Do you know what the fitting is, I think I have seen T5 somewhere

I've think they are the same as the ones in the ash tray

If those are the correct lamps then how about these blue LEDs
Not sure if these would fit

I really don't understand your comment Sean.
If not blue to match your seats they do the same LED lamps in white
I was referring to the age thing mate, blue leds IMO are for the boy racers :p

I did consider them mate, but if I can make them fit I would have to do the cluster as well
Forgot to add that I never drive it at night, I'm just getting everything as it should be.

I have tried to go this route Sean. I had to break the old bulb out leaving some of the wire to solder the new cap-less one onto. They don't just pull out - well mine didn't:(
Bloody .net, someone said his pulled out and he put them together with out solder, Its not a problem though if I have to solder them, did yours work ok once soldered
