Concerning the courtesy lights, what do your units actually look like?

Different courtesy light units will have different bulb fitments

Jammy git having submarine lighting

I got that as standard ;-)

They will be one of three bulbs(and sometimes a mix of)

Either-

T10 (also known as W5W or 501)

Festoon (38mm or 40mm, doesn't matter which as the contacts inside the light can be bent to accomodate them)-

H6W, (also known as 433 or BAX9S)

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/370700058442?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

It's best to pop open the light and compare the bulbs to be totally sure.

The standard light my car was built with took a festoon, the maplight one i replaced it with took a festoon and two H6W and the ambient one i have now takes three T10, so as you can see there are various combinations and types used therefore best to look.

Ok guys got a festoon in the front need a red 1 (if legal) and preferably led and can't get the rear one out

Any colour led is legal as long as it's not flashing.

Does the submarine lighting just light up a little bit of the dash?

  • Author

any links for red festoons ?

That should do the job nicely mate

Similar to what I have

  • Author

ok I shall wack an order for 1 and any recommendations for the rear light its a wedge bulb but I don't think the ones in the footwells will fit its worth a try though but if not any ideas

What do you have in your footwells?

A decent 5SMD wedge would do the job

  • Author

I got the ones u linked me to with 25 LEDs per bulb
