Dash lights

Hey guys, does anyone know what the lights are at the bottom of the speedo cluster (petrol light, ABS light, etc)??

Are the LED's??
What voltage do they take??
Can they be bought locally??
What is the spare one for??

Cheers

Its normal dash type globes, ill post pics tomorow. The two outer once are big (8mm in diameter) like the once that illumanate the dash but the other are smaller about 5mm in diameter.

Yeah I am talking about the small 5mm ones at the bottom of the cluster, ther entire row at the bottom. They are clear that light up a red or orange...

The spare one says pwr at the back i think , cant remember exactly. But they are clear the with deferent colored lenses. Two bigger once on the outsides and smaller once for the rest. No Globe or fitting in the spare tho.

If they are normal dash lights can you get blue or green locally?? I dont want UBER bright ones but the same as the red ones that are stock. What voltage do they take, 12V??

Should be 12v idnt see any resistors to reduce the voltage to them.

??? They are all clear, ive got blue once in my spare cluster.

Charl where did you get your blue ones from??

I want to trigger this light from a 12v relay.

They were in the cluster, imm planning to put them in mine some time but youll see in the pics its normal dash globes with a colored sleeve over them..

Just checking that we are one the same page here. Im talking about the spare globe at the bottom of the dash, think its 3rd from the left or something, in the same line as the ABS one, not the main dash lights that light up the whole cluster/speedo.

No globe in that, the lense i think is amber with pwr written on the wiring tracks at the back.

Can it be used??

Just so that were on the same page. 😀

Theres already tracks for it so if you can hack the wiring or bypass the tracks yes.

yeah like Charl said, it shouldn't be hard to hack. Will be doing mine in green some time this month(june).

Charl you say the globes are clear with a coloured film over them but if I look at my cluster my lights look clear when off and not red or orange.

I plan on hacking into the cluster plug and using the stock track.

The colored globe you get like the blue once in the one pic are the once with a colored film over them. The rest are clear. Youre abs,highbeam,oil,washer water ect are all clear globe with color filters in the cluster. The spare one is amber like the washer light next to it.

Cool so if I fit a blue globe into the spare spot that would give me a greenish light??

Gary - from the front side of the cluster, the clear "globes" you see, that look like LED's, are in fact NOT LED's...

they're just covers.

the light shines through them from the back, and this is where the colour can come in. you get a normal globe in the back, and you can put one of the coloured films in to get the desired colour...

or you can get coloured globes.

but those LED's in front are not actual LED's!
