dr_broon Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 a bit of LED action on the dials really does freshen things up... the old style bulbs really look dated now I reckon. Just had to do an LED attack on the missus's tourer - has loads of interior lights (doors etc), and they made me sad everytime I saw their dull yellow glow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still deciding if I'm going to rub the back of the faces to make them more white than the current yellow-ish colour that's coming through the numbers! But worried rubbing the backs may spoil the evenness of light if that makes sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilkesyMB6 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Yeah LEDs FTW, i have replaced all 3 lights in mine. Got to do the glovebox and the ash tray next! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But worried rubbing the backs may spoil the evenness of light if that makes sense? Wouldnt be too much of an issue to get another set of dials though? In fact, I have a set of dials on the EK will be breaking her up at some point this year so there of no use to me ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a sensible idea then I can tinker with it at my own leisure! I'm not sure if the EK one is the same shape or even works in the M's, though that would be pretty cool if it does!
