ek cluster bulbs

[vinnY]

anyone know what size the idiot light bulbs are?

i measured the base and it appears to be 4.5mm, no idea what name it is

i know the ones that illuminate the rear of the clusters is a single t10 and about 4-5 t5's

i want to replace the top two that illuminate the needles with higher intensity ones but they're neither t10 or t5, appear to be the same as the idiot lights

markings appear to be;
tsd
7 4

higher intensity is that like brighter or something?

[vinnY]

yeah trying to find brighter ones
looking to replace with surface mount led ones
found t10 and t5, just want to replace those two at the top for an even brighter look

[na-118]

yeah that's what i wanted wondering if they came in like bright amber or something can't you bring the bulb down and have a look though?

found the led ones online

got my eye on the smt suckers for t10 and t5
just wondering whether i can change the top ones while i'm at it
otherwise i'll just have to get that amber led paint stuff and remove that dark film thing which filters the light that shines on to the cluster needles themselves

1 x t10
4 x t5
2 x t5 on the top part of the cluster

[vinnY]

nah i don't want coloured ones, just white ones that are brighter

xp02ed; the top ones aren't t5
i've tried fitting the t5 bulbs from the other lights and they don't physically fit, connectors too small

[XP02ED]

then u have the wrong bulbs

its t5 (74) wedge type

what? i ripped out the stock ones
measured it, the base is 4.5mm
the regular t5 won't fit

[XP02ED]

not sure then aye but i definately used t5's

[vinnY]

the ones at the top appear to be the same ones used for the other instrument lights, not the ones that light up the cluster though

[XP02ED]

the insutrument ones i think are t7,

i bought LEDs which were t5 which were used to lightup the cluster and also used it for the top section which the base holding thingo seem similar.

i might be wrong or the fact the LEDS have smaller base than normal bulbs

well just for reference
