Do anybody's S2 + and - lights illuminate at night? I replaced the two globes on the driver's side of the gearstick and now my gear indicators sort-of light up, but the + and - buttons stay dark... which seems wrong.
With the lights, only two globes on the drivers side with a diffuser that goes around

all the gear selections including the + & -, however even with two new bulbs in

the + & - still dont light up.

Need brighter bulbs or retro fit a bulb/led on the left somewhere and they should light up fine.

2x 5w bulbs as said by 666DAN :banana:

Okay, so I pulled the shifter apart today and found out it is actually relatively simple to get to the two bulbs underneath. First you need to take out the surrounding part of the console by removing the screw behind the ashtray and then prying it up with a blunt, flat object. Next you will need to use a philips head screwdriver to remove the two screws holding in the shifter itself. After this it is just a simple matter of prying off the plastic that surrounds the remains of the shifter (small white stick looking thing). Once this is done there are two small (tiny) globes directly below the "PRND32" section that can be removed/replaced. I will upload pictures tomorrow once I have the replacement bulbs!

      So you're now accepting offers of 10% more than the cost of the turbo kit fitted?

      Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far

      The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
