Hi all,
Can you tell me if the cluster to the right of the steering wheel (Lights control switch, Fog and driving lights, panel dimmer) are supposed to light up.
If so, how do you access the bulbs.
any help appreciated 
Thanks

They do light up but I don't think you can change the bulb in them. I have one in the shed, I'll go have a look

Can someone nip out to Lee's shed & check he's OK? He's been gone a while :-?

Ha ha ha ha ha ....
Good 'un Phil...
was wondering where he had his shed....bloody big garden...lol

[Welung666]

Less of your lip Phil

I stand corrected... The light switch cluster in the shed (buried at the back I might add) had a 2w 509t bulb in the back so it is changable

Just as a side note.  Be careful when removing the Headlamp Switch.

It has a metal clip each side (left and right) which hold a ball-bearing in place.  This allows the switch to have a positive 'click' at 'Off, SideLights, Lights'.  If you lose a ball-bearing, it's a right pain in the arse.

Thanks, mate....sorry about Phil and my humour 

So that obviously means that the unit pops out, so tomorrow we start prising !!!

Thanks again

Cheers Broomie.....

Small tip... Wifes best butter knives, in either side just level with the top of the fog buttons, blade upwards. 45 degree angle (handle lower) and carefully slide each one up, you'll feel it hit the metal clip, then tease it upwards keeping the angle. As soon as you feel them slack off stop as you've got the clip pressed in. You'll feel what I mean the first time you go right off the other side of the clip DO NOT try pulling the switch out with the light knob, you'll break it! I found it easier to pop the end panel off the dash and gently push from behind with an insulated screwdriver.

Don't use serated ones, they stick against the stainless clips

Is there any particular make.

If you only have one butter knife - use two creit cards 

Seriously a 5 minute job!!
