[JoOs7eR]

Good Luck On Yr Search

[RVF_Kenny]

How many needed for spec 1? One on each side?

[JoOs7eR]

2 T10 Blubs 1 For Each Meter

[RVF_Kenny]

For Spec 1, there's a separate odo/clock/fuel gauge as attached in the pic. Wonder if anyone knows if there's a third bulb there and what bulb it uses?

[limbat]

Pls rememeber to buy onli the T10 wif the lowest wattage not the T10 5 or 10watt.

Higher wattage will hv a over heating problem.

If I am not wrong the speedo meter T10s are onli 1.5 or 1.7watt.

U should not use the signal T10 bulbs ( yellow colored ) - just use the clear glass T10 type - it should be brighter for yr meter, even is it is onli a T10 12volt 1.7watt.

[yiheng01]

any s4 bors here know how to open the speedometer cover to change the bulb? ?

[RVF_Kenny]

It's very easy. Just open the black back casing then you will see 2 bulb sockets. Pull them out then change bulb. Don't even have to dismantle the front.

i try to unscrew the 2 screw, but is still very tight.

Hi there,

 

i just change my meter T10 white wide angle leds..

 

Veri simple to open..

 

1) Unscrew the 2 screws per side. (The metal triangle support holding the headlight)

Total: 4 screws (2 screw per side)

 

2) Slowly pull out the metal triangle support outwards

 

3) Unscrew the 3 screws on the black back casing

 

4) Remove the black casing slowly (2 round sides and centre piece) once you had unscrew the 3 screws

 

5) Pull out the bulb and replace the new meter bulb..

 

That's all.. Simple right? It takes less than 40mins to do..

 

Total screws to remove: 7 screws altogther
