looks pretty cool, didn't realise it was that easy to change over, i thought i would have to change the whole thing.

one of the bulbs is blown and hard to see the buttons at night, so will definetely doing that

thanks for the guide and the result pics. :cheers:

I thought you told me you wouldnt sell the LEDS seprately? :D

Now I find out great one looks like ill have to buy a set now... I just cant be stuffed pulling apart my car haha

Lies!!!! I'd sell you an old napkin if I thought you really wanted it :) I thought you meant like the individual rectangle LEDs...I can't get them.

This was the final trial and error discovery with the R33 A/C's finally a bulb!

Old napkin hey ... Been looking for one of those

Alright .. Well im guna need the R34 Setup in red and then however many other bulbs it takes to also do the air con .. including the ready made aircon ones.. Hit me with a PM on cost .. im also prob guna get some ultra bright parkers to match (white, HID WHITE) my new stock R34 xenon system :D

So how many parts do we have to buy? Just the LEDs, or everything that in the photo? Or has most of that come from the car anyway? I need to do this desperately (actually, i need to get my "off" and "auto" buttons to work, but I didnt even know they lit up!!). Any one else have this problem?

You jsut need two T5 LEDs, then trim them to fit in the grey plastic base that is already in the A/C

Dan, I just ordered the T10s on ur ebay site for my 33 gtst dash. All thats listed is the dash kits. What have I got to do to get the a/c T5s as well? Ive been reading around and so far word is that urs seem to be the go. :)

Also, just a general one for any1 who can help, cant seem to find a decent thread on this... the clock light and the actual climate control lcd display, ive heard its made with layers n the colour is only given on the final (or final-ish) layer... is this correct, has anyone figured how 2 change this n if so is there a tutorial? wouldn mind a blue clock to match the rest

cheers

A picture of a r32 dash at night with red clock not the best pic but it shows what it looks like with a red t5 led instead of the normal bulb

pic was taken on a dirty ol camera phone

hmm, the 32 and 33 clocks are situated different, but I managed to refind that thread I stumbled across ages back

so where do we get these leds?

hmmm found a place on the net that supplies the T5 and T10 LED bulbs, as well as T5 and T10 sockets. Would it be better to buy the aftermarket T5 sockets for an R34?

    • Your other option is to buy a spray can of hi-fill and prime it with some pinholes. See if the primer makes them disappear. If it does, then you can leave it with pinholes of that size and they will go away when the painter takes over.
    • Ah ok. I seem to be mixing it like everyone else does so not sure what's happening. Will experiment with it more.
    • Depends on what you mean by OK. First up, was this done cold or hot? Are they reasonably consistent? Yes, they are reasonably consistent. Could be better. But unless it has had a build at some point, it is a ~30 year old engine and you'd expect some variation. Some of the difference could also be in user technique Is it good compression? Well....not numerically, no. New they were >160 psi. The one at 140 would be fine, in that context. If they were all ~140, you'd be reasonably happy. But the one that is @120 is twice as far down from the original numbers as the one @ 140. But.. (again)... technique can play a part in the absolute magnitude of these numbers, and the quality/state of repair/accuracy of the pressure gauge is not known. In the context of the above, the compression tester that was used last on my car is regularly compared to a known good pressure gauge. Not calibrated, exactly, but compared to a reference instrument that is not used for any other purpose, so cops no abuse. So we can trust the measurements off that tester. But another tester in the same workshop wasn't being compared against the standard and was reading a good 30ish psi lower. When you're reading 100 psu but the engine is really doing 130, you can make bad decisions.
    • More likely from tiny bubbles in the filler/putty. Maybe be less aggressive when mixing it. Perhaps invest in a vacuum chamber to pull the air bubbles out?** **I don't know if this is a thing for body filler. I see hardcore epoxy makers degassing their mixed resin on the regular.
    • IIRC, the speedo on these is fed from the sensor in/on the snout of the diff.
