Title: Instrument cluster bulbs
Post by: bobmcc13 on November 22, 2013, 19:59

I have discovered that several of the small bayonetless bulbs in the instrument cluster on my 2 are blown.

Also I am missing one of the bulb holders.

Where can I buy these items, I have been to Halfords and they don't stock such small bulbs.

Any help would be appreciated.

I always thought that the dashboard was dim, now I know why.

90% certain they're a 286 lamp, can get them cheap online, holders too. I'd hold on till someone can confirm the type though s;) ;) s;)

Yep 286 12v 1.2 watt capless.

Ignore the missing bulb holder. Its not supposed to be there unless you have SMT.
