If nothing else, i might just get a cap for that spot, and disconnect the switch.

brickhardmeat · 03-12-2007, 10:33 PM

Can someone break down the install on the led to go in the auto shifter for the liftback? I have searched the threads and the repair manual but haven't found any good instructions or a tutorial. I'm stumped.

It will be cheaper and quicker for me to purchase from somewhere in the UK hence the UK (ebay) links.
I know i can get them from autolumination.
I still dont know how many bulbs there are per knob.
Can someone check those links for me and tell me if any of those are any good?

Regards

FH

vodkalush · 07-02-2007, 02:02 PM

sorry, didnt even look at your local.
Each knob only has 1 light in it. And you can search ebay for "Neo - Wedge Instrument Panel Bulbs." just be-sure that they are the correct ones if you get from ebay

Farenheit · 07-02-2007, 03:50 PM

Any of these links any good?

Jerkratt · 07-02-2007, 05:31 PM

i just got mine from autolumination.com and there is 1 led per knob

vodkalush · 07-03-2007, 06:50 AM

bulb:

led:

is how the LED/Bulb needs to look for the temp controls

the you listed look like the one needed for the shifter light (gear selection light-up on automatics)

vodkalush · 07-03-2007, 06:54 AM

Once again if you go with a bulb it needs to be:
Neo - Wedge Instrument Panel Bulb

and if its a led:
Neo - Wedge Instrument Panel LED Type A/B (C should work aswell)

Yes it can be done in the 09 - I just changed my speedo gauge backlighting from orange to blue using these from eLed :
http://www.eled.com/product.asp?cata...d=epl3015pbc-a

They are slightly bigger than what Vodkalush recommended in his DIY but they worked fine and were easier to work with (slightly). The problem I ran into was the clock on the base 09 LB gets its color from the plastic housing it is in, so changing the LED's would not fix that. What I did was buy some blue 1/8 inch transparent plexiglass and use that to change the clock color. I cut out a window in the orange plastic part around the clock and replaced it with a small piece of blue plexi that I got here:
http://www.estreetplastics.com/Trans...Sheet_s/58.htm

Cost me like $3 plus the LED's and overall was pretty easy - Use search to find the DIY from others that changed their gauge color lighting
