Hi everyone, new to this so bare with me
I've got 2002 Leon Mk1 1.4 16v and want to replace all the interior bulbs for 'bright white' ones. Any idea what bulbs I need and where to get them? (Not internet based companys).
Thank you
There's a thread on this mate that tells you all the bulb sizes, most of the places are online!

Sorry I may be being thick, where can I find a list of all the bulbs I need to order, I know its 2xt5s for the rear lights.....what else....and is there one supplier I can order them all from.......
Alibali45, have you got a link for that thread with the bulb sizes?
I want to replace all the interior lights too
I'm living away from home (and hence the car) so I can't check what sizes they are!
From what I understand it's
Front Ceiling - ???
Rear Ceiling - 2 x T5
Boot - 1 x 42mm festoon
Glovebox - 1 x 37mm festoon
Front mirror lights - 2 x 37mm festoon
Puddle (5 door) - 4 x 37mm festoon
Number plate lights - 2 x 39mm festoon
Sidelights - 2 x 501 Wedge base
Are there any others?
Thanks

Is the size of the front ceiling festoon 42mm buddy?
Here's the thread for the rear courtesy lights, they are 2 x T5, tiny bulbs by the looks of it!

I've done a full LED conversion of interior lights on the Octavia, which has the exact same interior light units as the Leon. Will be doing the Leon's very soon.
Makes a tremendous difference -- buy them off eBay. I did, with no problems whatsoever.

Its a 44mm festoon. The one I got off ebay had 12 LED's on it in a flat panel. Just replace the bulb (as others have said, it only works one way round), and angle the panel don to throw the light.
Mike
dont forget the led bulbs are polarity sensitive, if they dont work turn em round
Something people always forget!
I ordered a 42mm for that one, it should fit if I bend the contacts right, seeing as it's not greatly different in size?
