Speedometer bulb change?

Post by wncbmw »

Anyone done this? My speedo light burned out and I need to change it. The manual says nothing, of course. What's the procedure? Looks easy to damage parts to me!

I could just use it as an excuse for speeding at night though! Honest officer, I couldn't tell how fast I was going! :P

Possibly, I've got a pea brain when it comes to electrical items. Whatever I did worked..... :smt102

Search function, what a concept! (insert Homer Simpson forehead slap emoticon here)

Thanks. I guess I had better get two bulbs first. Might as well do both while I have it apart. And I can cuss with the best of them! :wink:

Thanks.
