    Bulb replacement !


    The next job on my S2 is to replace the bulbs that have blown

    The ones that are not working are the oil temperature bulb and the volt meter bulb,plus the blower control bulb,it is doing my head in now and i need to get them replaced,i know which bulbs to get (1.2) but how difficult a job is it to do?
    ie how long will it take me to do as daylight at the moment is still against us and i dont want to start something and it go dark on me (pardon the pun)
    cheers

      Its not too much drama once you figure out the trim round the heater controls pops off, then you undo the two screws folding the little trim just above the gauges. took me a while to figure that one out. The rest is fairly straight forward the transmission tunnel trim is held on with screws in the rear ashtray then behind the little flap in front of the handbrake and under the shift gaiter, struggle that lot off and BYU Like james says, you only want to do it once so do em all, i left one with the origional as i ran out and it went the next day

        Thanks guys

        A little tip,check the price of bulbs before you buy,a certain big company begining with `H` wanted £1.79 each,i went to a local motor factors and bought 6 (six) for £1.40
