I have changed the clocks around in the car. Where I had a voltmeter I have replaced it with an original clock. The clock has a 12v 2 w bulb, but as much as I look, I cannot find a replacement bulb in blue (to match the rest of the dash lighting). Does anyone know wherer to get one, or how to mod the bulb holder arrangement?

If all else fails, Hobbycraft sell small bottles of glass paint! I've done this in the past and it works well.
It will be all right in the end. If it isn't all right yet, then it is not yet the end..

Not sure what MK it is, but it's the silver faced one without the MG logo, pic of the bulb and holder.

John, the blue's ok I just don't fancy changing all the bulbs. Although red would match the stereo better

just one point frostie, not teaching you to suck eggs, but they will fit either way, so test it before you put back together to make sure it's the right way around. the bulb holder needs to be touching the metal bit it slots into to work :broon:
