Instrument Cluster Light Bulbs

[Nick1981-1]

Hi, I would just like to begin by thanking everyone on the forum for the help they have given me so far. I am working my way through a few minor bits n bats that need doing on the car and this is the last one to sort. I am wanting to replace some light bulbs on the clocks. I know how to get the cluster out but are these bulbs clip in ones or are they soldered directly onto the board. Which bulbs do I need to replace them. Also, on the little display that displays the total mileage of the car, this is just blank, no digits or anything on this little screen. I have been told that this is again just a bulb behind the lcd screen that needs replacement. Any tips on how to do this would be great or any advice in general. Many thanks.

The bulb behind the lcd screen is the small 5mm capless type. I should think most of the dash is lit by this type so get a bag of them from ebay / internet as the local auto parts stores tend to charge 0.75 - 1.00 each.

If you are referring to the speedo clocks they have surface mount LED's rather than bulbs and you have to pull off all 5 of the needles to get to them, which is not easy to do without breaking them
