Changing Interior Lights **GUIDE**

[pezzlauk]

is there a light in the glove box if not is it possible to fit one etc?

 

[nightflight]

No, and yes,
There's a thread on here showing how to do it if I remember correctly.

i presume that you turn the engine off and remove the key before changing the bulbs over? i might give this a go tomorrow as my bulbs have just arrived today

Have you tried rotating them and trying the other way?

Sorry for dragging up an old topic, but haven't actually done my interior yet. Just about to order the bulbs when I thought of something that I kept hearing people say.

Has everybody who has done this experienced the slight dim when they lock the car?
I remember people saying there was always still a slight glow. If that is most cases, i'll stick to the yellow manky light lol.

Completed my Light change yesterday along with putting my extreme vinyls on, this was really easy to do the lights!

I replaced the 2 side fron bulds with orange leds now awaiting delivery for my blue leds for the centre and boot, will be a rave soon

 

[adambolus]

Orange led's in the front will they not be illegal?

 

[char_baby]

Extreme vinyls?

 

[BPrudence]

Extreme Vinyl's as in orange and white chess board patter on the doors and roof

 

[char_baby]

Woah, you need to get some pics of this!

 

[BPrudence]

The LED's are inside the car so I hope not and if they are they know where to go

 

[BPrudence]

I will get them up tonight I am just at work for few more hours then I will post them in MK5 location.

Takes a while to look at it and know it is amazing but otherwise it looks wierd

 

[char_baby]

Look forward to it though.

 

[BPrudence]

Will look much better when I get my Alloys sprayed orange
