Hi, can anyone tell me what size/type of bulb I need to fit behind my heater controls? Finally decided I need light!:icon_nod:

A little tip your better off looking for a led to replace it as these bulbs blow quite often and they are a pita to change and the led will last longer.

Well me and a mate have just spent over an hour pulling the dash apart to find that the bulb had blown but more annoyingly there is now no current running to it either. Looks like we've got to do some re-wiring so an led kit may be sought!

Just re-wire it to the glove box light.

Is that going to be easier than changing to led's? (don't forget I am a technical retard!)
