More bulb help

[Terrano Steve]

Thanks to the other thread I thought it would be nice to be able to see the lcd on my Terrano in the dark too.
I removed one of the bulbs easily enough and drove to 4 local motor factors & a scrap yard in search of the little blue 5.6 watt bulbs with the cluster still unscrewed.
Looks like this is going to be a main dealer part unless some one has a e.bay link or other suggestion.
I will try to put some pictures up when I find some bulbs.
Cheers Steve.

I don't know if you've been asking for the wrong thing or if the above is a typo but you need 0.56w and not 5.6w bulbs. Oh and the bulbs are a push fit into the Blue bulb holder. I can see 0.36w here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/286TXV-12...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4d2a2bf377
They may be a bit dim but better than nothing :nenau

Ha thanks 5.6 was a typo I think I would give myself arc eye with them.

I didn't realize the bulbs were push fitted in to the holder although I can't get the bulbs out of the holder.

I took it with me to motor factors but no one had anything that small it is tiny.

Hm, I'm sure that the ones in my old '96 Terrano pushed into the holders but they may be different on the newer models?

Think I have found the correct bulbs on e.bay now will post some pics when they arrive.

An 07 Terry, must be one of the last ones

 

[Terrano Steve]

Just thought I would finish this thread. I got some t3 bulbs from e.bay they are quite easy to fit just need to release the instrument cluster turn it over and they are the three blue one facing you in the centre.

Cheers Rustic Nice to know it only cost me £10 to have the pee taken on here.
My electricity supplier charge me a lot more to take the pee.

You got to buy it for her.:thumb2

We can't have a commercial one living here, they are banned from London and cost silly money to take over the Dartford Crossing. Easier to find a red or blue one and just paint the bonnet, doors & boot yellow. Lol

My truck had massive orange twin flashing beacons & reflective stripes on it when I bought it which was handy in case you didn't notice it.
It was black when it left the factory which would have been nice.

Off topic slightly but I'd like to know more about this!!! Is this the Low Emissions Zone?

How would this affect me if visiting London with parking etc? Or even driving through the low emission zones with cameras :nenau
