The GM ones and the Ring ones you can remove with a 8mm socket with a bit of tissue in the end to grip the bulb a little tighter

i used a pair of slim pliers and an absolute must for most auto-toolkits; a pair of tweezers!

im surprised at the cost of the bulbs you're all mentioning, i'm more than happy with the ones i bought and at £2.49 a pair it sounds like they're pretty outstanding value!

Sounds like he gave you the wrong ones Andy

We both knew it at the time, but it was FOC so I didn't complain, besides it came in handy a few days later when I was sorting out my lad's Astra F centre console lights.

Loo-Knee - there are 5. Not 3, not 4. rather 5!!

[Darth Loo-knee]

It can stop without them its doing my head in

[Darth Loo-knee]

Yes I have read the how too before anyone gives me ear ache

It says there are 5 bulbs needed, now i phoned our Stealers they said there were 4 and they don't keep them in they have to order them.

This in quoted in the thread, but which do I need three of? Also do these bulbs light up the + and - signs aswell as LO and HI?

All 5 are the same, which one depends on your VIN (your MV6 will be 2nd one).

Ah right so there are two different types for certain years well the part number he gave me from the chassis number looks like the bottom one too, right i will order 5 of them then, i was thinking there was three of the top part number and say two of the bottom :-?

[TheBoy]

No, see the chassis number - -T1147499 - that is the breakpoint when it changed.
