hey guys, i want 2 change the cluster globes from the original green 2 blue and have looked in jaycar who told me 2 go 2 comwreck but knew they wudnt hav any so just tried supercheap and they had nothing and the tried autobarn who told me 2 try mechs...im like r u stupid? Anyway ive looked on the net...ebay and the guy who does vr/vs clusters had no idea what the bulbs even looked like so that was a waste of time...it can obviously be done + just need 2 know where 2 get the globes and who has done it?
Contacting Phreddy thats where its done, i havent had it done, (cause i sort of lack a full licence atm) just get contact him

you just have to scrape off all the green shit off the dial,or buy an aftermarket one off eBay and scrape it off,EASY!
And it does look good,coz you can change the colour any time you want.
thanks ive been trying for ages to find out what led lights they were autobarn told me to pull the cluster out take out the globe put it back in and go back and show them the globe bloody ########s
hey mate when you find somewhere let me know where and a price cos i wanna change mine to blue as well
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeebbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!
Cluster lights are T5!!
Hey there guy dash lights are t5 wedge but u will find that when u plug them in they actually flare the the plastic seat for them and makes it hard to get back in so i filled my down a bit to get them in and the trip light are t4 neo wedge globe ,jaycar do have them that where i get myn but they dont have neo wedge do i use the excisting blobe base and cut the t5 wedge down to get the into the globe base try and do one and attach a photo.
Cheers guys, yeh I emailed Len from EziHID and he said to contact phreddy aswell but its been 2 months and they have yet to get back to me...just sick of looking around and getting know where. Thanks heaps guys for suggestions and sounds easy to strip the green off the back of the dials but now just have to look for globes and no I don't want cheap. Does the old green bulb just come out and you sit the new blue 1 in? Does the wire wrapped around the black seat stay there?
The globes just pull out(might be hard depending on age),if you're replacing them with LED's you put them in one way and if it doesn't work simply turn it around.All wires stay there,except for the one LCD screen bulb on the bottom of the cluster.
Madd!! just came across some1 selling the whole seat and blue globe ready to pop in and twist...saves all the bullsh*t of mucking around. Now gotta c if the other bulbs for climate control and aircon are the same size from memory coz car is getting roady atm.......PIGS.
Thanks for Telling me they were T5 for the cluster to coz i had no idea. Made it heaps easier. Cheers.
sigh.................

save you what bullshit? is it that hard to undo socket, pull globe out, insert new globe, twist socket back in?
and they are T10dammit
Yes actually!! When im only just learning about cars. I reckon people should appreciate girls learning automotive aspects. Y do you think I was asking, obviously I didnt know. The other guy told me the wrong thing didnt he so well I'm not the only 1. Well theres no point in getting the globes if theres still green on the backing of the dials...just tried scraping them off and it bloody scratched through...is there another way to get the green backing off? All i want to do is have a straight blue through the dials. People are telling me things but aint workin.![]()
The correct size for the rear lights is a T10 Wedge Bulb, if at first they dont work reverse them as they only will work one way.Click the link in my signature there are some pictures of what my conversion looks like in my VN. Its fairly straight forward, but its not the best meathod.
There's no need to scratch the green off the back. The blue goes straight through it.
What wrx is trying to say, is that it will look 100x better having it done professionally by ASR audio forum sponsors.
Also wen scraping the green off if u got an orginal facia theres NO WAY it can scratch through, unless ur doing the heater control units facia thats a different story again. do u have an aftermarket dial facia? If u dont scrape this green paint off u'll always have a green tinge 2 the blue colour and wen u go 2 do the rest of ur switches ect... it'll look outer place and not look the same colour blue.
They r also T5 wedge globes that r use not T10.
