Many of us have, the speedo is a piece of piss, the heater panel is a fooking c*n*t.
And we don't get them from eGay, we get them from www.crazyleds.co.uk

imo, unless you're in desperate need to change the 2 bulbs behind the heather panel, I wouldn't bother. I only changed mine coz them 2 bulbs and the 2 behind the speedo had gone so I couldn't see how fast I was going when driving at night, NOT a good thing

Does the dimmer switch still work with the LEDs ?

I've never found a 100% answer to this, can you still dim the dash board lights if you have swopped to LED bulbs ?

Thanks

I don't have an MFD in my car. Also, I brought replacement bulbs, no soldering required. I'm guessing most of you brought different types of bulbs to me.

Mine kit from crazy leds doesn't fit my MFD.

Mine are also really dim, and you can't fit them wrong, they either work or they dont.
