Dash lights

[Slyvr]

Hello there, short question, as I am unable to find a relevant topic on this.
I do not know how to take out the panel under de radio-cd unit, with the air and heater controls...
One of the lights shut down on me and I do not have any ideas what kind of bulb I need and how to replace.
If someone has any info on that topic, please help out
Many thanks

Take out the radio and you'll see 2 screws on the top of it. k:

Removal is also reference in the How to: Remove the dashboard guide.

I'm not sure that you'll be able to replace the bulb very easily though.

Although according to the thread below it should be quite easy

Seems like a fairly easy job, considering i have a kickass car electrician, but i have no idea what kind of bulbs are there. I will probably ask the guys from the last topic :lol:
Thanks for the pointers :grin:

if you cant find the bulbs you could always try this

try to get wide angle leds, the ordinary ones look fine in the car but wide angle ones would be a little better

Even the wide angle LEDs aren't that wide angle, but as you said, they would be a little better.

Thank you for the help. Will get started asap :grin:

Most wide angle led's are 120 degree and they are shorter than standard ones so they wont sit so close to the inside of the panel. I put the ordinary ones in mine and they look pretty good (the photo dosn't do them justice at all)
