Dash / Clock Lights?
Thu, 13/11/2014 - 22:29
I seen somewhere on a US based forum, a guy who had fitted LED's in place of the dim bulbs to a W460. Anyone know what size and how many are needed before taking the clocks apart?
Thanks

I've done it red .it was to dull and blue was to bright.i will take a picture.
the way led light spreads is not the same and the old circular fittings are a nightmare
but still looks better than original

Do they fit in existing lamp holder? Or are there adapters? How does the upgrade work? Certainly the original bulbs are pretty poor...
I'd like to try a the upgrade, if it's not too finicky...
Did you use replacement bulbs? or did you wire in LED's?
If your LED's are not giving equal light, a trick i have used in the past is to sand the tops flat as this stops the light 'hotspotting'.
Interested in seeing the pics and method :)
