Coloured bulb covers
fellatthelast - 25/5/11 at 04:29 PM

Does anyone know of anywhere where these can be bought. I have scoured the net but can only find LED versions. I want to keep the original dash bulbs, just place a cover over them for a more retro look.

This is the kind of thing I am looking at.



Thanks for the help

Holy moly!

You were right on both counts. The cheaper plastic bulbs would do but as I already have the lights in the dash, all I want to do is place coloured bulb lenses into the metal faceplate so that they will show the illumination from the original bulbs below (less wiring faff!)

Thanks for the pointer though. Nice site!
