To turn the centre console (heat controls, fan speed etc) and clock/temp display white? also the speedometer, rev count, fuel gauge.. etc. All in white.

Can anyone please link me to these bulbs and maybe tell me how many I need of each?

cheers

Quick warning: Removing the centre console to change the bulbs is probably the worst job you will have to do in the interior of a corsa

Clocks are easy to do, as is the MFD, check in tutorials.

Yep, thats the ones for the clocks + MFD. You will need 5 for that, 3 for the clocks, 2 for the MFD.

The centre console needs 3, but i cant remember the bulb time, they are small things, quite narrow.

I swear a lot when I turn the fan speed up rather than the heat and get a face full of fast moving air and dust! Im fully prepared to do this.

Also Wes what do you mean?

Does ANYONE have a clue on what bulbs I need and how many!?

Dash bulbs + MFD:

http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/u509tw509t-twist-bulb-custom-white-frosted-p-954.html

You need 5 of those. They will be fine, lights up the clocks perfect.

Centre Console:

http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/u286w-dash-board-slim-wedge-bulb-white-p-300.html

You need 3 of these. The dash bulbs arnt very bright tbh, even the standard ones, they are only there so you can just see the console.

Id get that mate, its the same thing as the other ones, but you get the ashtray bulb too, and full instructions for it. Not really all that more expensive either.

You cant get into it without taking the ashtray off, but then you open it, a light should come on from behind the ash tray, lighting it up
