Dash bulbs
Hi fellas, what are the best ones to buy to upgrade the clocks lighting? Mine and my dads are very weak.

Just fitted a set of LED bulbs from Fourby.co.uk to my 300TDI. Has definitely helped with the brightness, and the blue colour is more legible than the dull green.

From the way way the light shines around the dials though, I'm not sure it'll ever be as bright as a modern car. All you can really do is make the edges of the dials get brighter!

Not sure if you can replace the clock bulb, normally sealed? I put the blue LEDs in the other dials and it is an improvement. Jeff

I replaced the clock bulb when doing mine. It's a different type of bulb, but was as easy to change as the rest of them.
