Lockwood dials? If so, what colour are the markings and numbers, it should shine through as bright as these..

Are the numbers and markings on your dials white or orange?

It is difficult to get a good pic of leds or in fact any light source in the dark. You get one or two that turn out well, but its not easy to capture them as they really look.

Its surprising the difference they make really just for a couple of quid. Have you got diffused in the mfd? I've also got plug and play for the heater panel now too

MFD is done, haven't considered the heater panel yet though.
Looks like a bitch to get at IMO?

I'm not familiar with the C, the B is bad enough the first time, gets a bit easier with practice though.

In a corsa b its not to difficult to get to, although as my car is lowered it only took about 4-6 months for them to loose there connections or fail, Cobra is there any way I can make sure the ones you are sending, when I put them in that they wont loose there connections quiet as quick?

Lose their connections? Only way they are likely to do that is if you don't have the right holders, or they aren't fitted right

i still havent got round to fitting the ones in the heater controls. need alot of patience for this but i will do it at some point
Anyone wanting unusual leds i suggest the rainbow ones as they look brilliant and cobra has many different types

hmmm, I'll have to have a good look at them when I put the new ones in, most of them are out now, last time I replaced them some were just slightly out of place not making proper contact, I replaced them with geniune vauxhall bulbs but didnt seem to help?

I have white lockwoods but they have orange markings so the blue leds never shined through so gotta stick with the orange light
