Aircon dial bulb

[Red_Devil11]

Hi

Any of u guys here change the aircon dial bulb (2 orange bulb)? I would like them in either white or blue but cannot get it locally (in Singapore).. :(

[petrovski]

guys in japan pull out the orange lights and wire up leds (if thats not what they are already - its been a while since ive seen it)

so, i guess you could get some white or blue leds

[spoon fit]

not sure, i will going to ask TypeG to teach me

[TypeG]

LOL
dun ask me coz i no idea how to take those 2 bulbs out from the bulbs holders
I just put those red condoms on top of the bulbs
they are not bright but i think they work out better as LED are too bright for console i think, sometimes i just think they are really disturb me at night

oh! that is so creative!! ha ha! actually, u can try to use some red "glass paper" to cover the light blub!

if u can see where they are...which is pretty obvious once uve pulled the console out....just pull them out of their sockets.

theyre 5mm wedge bulbs similar to the corner parkers which are 10mm wedges.
just find a place that sells them in blue or whatever colour

[asiansquad]

anyone in melb have actually done this?

[spoon fit]

asiansquad, we do it together

[asiansquad]

yeah i don't mind
but i dunno how to pull the console out..hahaha

[spoon fit]

[asiansquad]

so on the melb jazz meet? sorry guys the date kept on changing.... can't make everyone happy at the same time..... is 08/01 good? cos Type G is leaving on the 9th.... he is in Queensland now.... lucky bastard.....

[asiansquad]

yeah 08/01 is good...i'm going syd on 30/12 and will be back on 3/1

[civiceg9]

need a 12V led and a resister, weld them together
LED only lights up one way, so need to know where is the + and -

I have yet to try, but the basic ones looks ok easy to do.

[TypeG]

lol
I am back
just find a day to do it

[spoon fit]

[asiansquad]

[MRFIT]
