Led Light

[stasis]

Hi Guys,

Has anybody change their Led light in the climatic control? The one the act as the backlights so you can see the readouts on the climatic control at nite? Mine blew on side since i got the car.

You take the unit out, then unscrew the front of it. the blubs are set in a little clip which unscrews and you can take it out. Good luck finding new blubs to fit, mine has been blanked out for a while now because I haven't been able to find new ones.

so the climatic control just pops out like the tapedeck? Also shouldnt Nissan dealers have the bulbs?

i believe there was someone doing a group buy of different colour led's on the GB thread so maybe do a search and see if he has them yet? they were gonna be in white (std) blue amber and i think green? had a few pics of them installed in gtr dashes adn looked the goods, so might be worth sussing out?

cheers oxford

Jump on the Yahoo auctions. There are quite a few kits on there for them. Most of them seem to be blue though, but if thats not a drama (wouldn't be for me) have a look.

I got bulbs for mine from dick smith in brisbane city, can't remember the part number but they were tiny 12v bulbs. I just took the ones out of the car into the shop and compared them. They came with wires on them already which i stripped to bare wire to put in the unit. That was about a year ago and they have been perfect ever since. If you do go ahead, the stock bulbs have little blue sleeves over them which are very fragile, try not to damage them when you take them off so you can re-use them.

No Yudi, it's very easy...

Just use the guide for removing your head unit, and once you get the whole section which holds the stereo, guages and climate control panel out, it'll be easy from there.

Ohh oK thanks Nick. That shouldnt be a problem since i change the headunit myself. THanks again. This Led light have been bugging me since i got the car almost 1yr now. Geez thats quick 1 year already. I dont think i will ever sell the car, it will be a ripper in abt 10yrs.
