Hey guys.

Was trying to install the lights in the AC unit.

And now i broke one of the bulbs(existing) and i think i cant use the holder anymore as well.

I recieved 3x LED's and 3 x lights that look exactly like the dash lights.

Problem was that these lil bulbs would not come out of the holders, so i broke one of the bulbs :(

This is the comparison. I don't believe these lights can fit into the holders.

What do i do???

Are there any places where i can get a replacement holder for the light?

And how am i meant to fit these lights in to the AC button bit? As they didn't come with holders, and i don't think the existing holders allow the bulb to come out.

HELPPP!!!!

Those are wedge-bulb LED's...

1) You need to unwrap the wires before you pull the bulbs out.

2) I have not found any pre-made bulbs that will work in those holders

Apart from that... I have a couple of working ones here. I changed mine to LED's, but that was self-made. It's doable.

The LED's came with their own holders so it is no real biggie.

Just that the T5 or T10 bulbs didn't and i don't know how to put these in.

From my understanding i am meant to solder these onto the metal connectors.

Mioght give it ago.

      It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.

      Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
