Thanks

Well I have an older clock setup, but I'm sure the only difference with newer clusters is that the bulb holder is round?



You just pull the little holder out and change the bulb, wala!

you need 501 capless bulbs , if you are fitting led bulbs as i did make sure they are in the right way round or they will not work as they are polarised

From looking at the picture of the clocks above, it looks like it'll take about six but not sure if it changed when they brought out the newer clocks.

Let me know what you find (and how you remove it) as it'll help me too

the sport dash would have three nuts (think 10mm from memory) one behind the internal fuse box inside under the dash ,one int same place but other end and one behind radio, take out the radio and it is on the bottom inside the radio slot bolted to the bottom of the dash , when i did mine i got my hand up the back of the dash and did it in situ bit fiddly but easier than removeing the dash , on the later dash you will require three 501 capless bulbs
