Interior Lighting Q's

[SneakyPete27]

G'day all,

The time has come for me to replace the globes in the instrument cluster in the 320i, as well as the lighting in the headlight switch and in behind the air-con switches; I just have a few q's I thought I'd ask before making stupid (and expensive) mistakes.

I found a very basic DIY on doing the instrument cluster at http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/...usterbulbs.htm , but it doesn't say what kind of bulbs (style/size/wattage etc) to get...I'd rather have them bought before ripping out the dash and then going driving to buy them

And as for how to replace the globes/led's in the headlight switch/aircon switches....any references/writeups anyone could provide?

And shoot me down if it's a dumb question, but can the stock orange color of your instrument cluster be changed to a different color (without buying indiglo or other types of gauges) ?

Thanks in advance,

i cant answer your first questions, but as for your question about converting the dash lights to another color - it can definately be done. Heres a little DIY writeup: http://nolimit.to/MYM3/interior_lighting.htm
