Does anybody know where you can get nice ricey interior bulbs up here?

I'm basically after some coloured bulbs to replace a few of the instrument cluster bulbs. Want brighter wattage ones with some sort of colouring to them so i can make my dash look interesting at night. I think they're the blade kind.

Hey Pred if you are looking for those kind of globes and don't mind fitting them yourself then I have found Jaycar to have the best range and prices.

Example: 2meters of blue EL cable is $29.00, the exact same thing at Supercheapo Auto is $59.95 and Autobarn has it for $69.95

I am will use high intensity blue LED's in mine when i get around to pulling the dash apart again.

Yeah, i think i am heading that route, with some 12V LEDs. I just put it all back together, so might be a while until i get around to it.

Familiar with Jaycar, when i was in Melb, went there a fair bit to pick up this and that. And yup, the prices there are much cheaper that other places for common stuff. Wiring it up should be no probs, i know my way around a soldering iron.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
