Or use some really small screwdrivers, I.e. precision ones....they work a treat and also means you keep your finger nails!

Hi Just new to this Forum

I ordered bulbs off eBay, and they work.. well worked, I done all 5 in the front (mirrors and centre) and then got the back right done was working a treat went to the back left and then they all just stopped.. Now I have spent my entire evening reading the forums and the manual over and over again thinking I have missed something.. but for the life of me I cant find any of these fuses, I have found the fuses by the right hand side of the steering wheel but they all look massive for interior and none of them say 15, or 7.5 (the two numbers mentioned in this thread)
I have also looked in the fuse box in the engine bay and again the numbers don't correlate to anything.

My leon is a 2008 FR... Please help I'm in darkness when in the car...

Thanks Kyle

In my FL Leon it's number 24, a 20 amp fuse. The interior lights circuit is definitely in the fuse box in the interior!

Thanks, will try this tomorrow!!

Does the LED Upgrade Kit from partsulike fit the MK1 Leon Cupra R?

Looking to change the interior lights, these look bomb!

I put these in mine yesterday, the number plate lights still give me an error light, what can I do now?

Anybody got a complete list for the FL? decided i want to finally get round to doing this,i want to replace the following

1.All interior including glovebox and boot
2. Sidelights
3. DRL Bulbs

Not interested in doing the number plate ones, im going to go down the OEM Porsche kit route for this i think

Their website seems to have been down for a couple of weeks now, but they do appear to be selling on ebay.

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/partsulike-shop

May be worth contacting them through that.

Ive never had a reply from them via their website contact box or via their email. Would NOT recommend them.

Correct

To change all interior lights on FL cars you would require 3x501, 4x38mm festoon and 1x42mm festoon.

I've got 36mm festoons are home ready to put in, no boot light though!

the 3 bulbs in the central light are 5W, it's difficult to read the bulb , 2 are buried and central 1 extends out from the hole

so best option would be to have 2 directional on the sides + central one with wider light angle

2 pieces like this one

1 central piece like this one

am i right??

this one should also work , it's 2wats , 8 x0.24w total power
i didn't understand well if we have to match the original bulbs power with leds power , because we have 3pcs x 5w in the center light alone

 

[Jarre]

I have 3 of the 501LED 8SMD ones in my interior light and it's plenty bright enough. The picture is of my old leon but I still use the same bulbs no camera flash

 

[Mac]

great light, so you have the 8smd in the last photo i posted? 2wats each, but much more light then the original bulbs
