S2 Stagea Led Globe Replacement (Cluster)

[twins777]

hi guys,

just wanted to get some info on a problem ive got.. i went to replace my globes from my cluster with 5mm wedge style ones ( what are normally used ) but they are a loose fit in the hloders i have, my factory ones are a wierd size.. just wondering if anyone has had the same problem and if you have been able to change the instrument colour in a S2 stagea as my cluster is orange.. looks like the numbers are orange not sure if can change the colour with a globe??

would be good to get some info on this problem..

thanks guys

i think a few guys have tried blue leds without much success as there seems to be a filter in the cluster (the clear bit that actually makes up the number to let the light through) so only certain colours work, ie, orange, red, maybe yellow. to my understanding anyway. all other colours appear reeaaallllllllllyyyyy dull such that you can barely read them.

edit* - not sure about your fitment issue though as i haven't tried any myself for fear of wasting money
