True, I hadn't thought of that. I may do that soon. Thanks.

Did anyone change the bulbs for their center console in a B13? I need to know what size and how many bulbs are there. I can't find it in this or the other cluster threads. Thanks.

Unfortunately the pics are down, but maybe you can contact the OP or glean enough info from the text?

I already PM'd him and waited for almost a week before I posted here. Thanks for the link, I'll try to get as much info out of that as I can.

I'll update. I just put some of these same bulbs, in cool white, into my VDO gauges:



Yes, the cool white has a definite bluish tint. Here's a fuzzy pic that shows the color of my complete dash lit up:

Many thanks for the write-up.

While I didn't do the light swap, I remembered from reading this that the tunnel for the speedo cable wasn't necessary so I cut it out while I was installing a new cable!
