Hey i'm doing an LED blue conversion of my entire dash and center console.

I've asked around but ppl jus say go to ebay to get them.
Well i did. And wasn't best pleased. Some didn't work, theres no screw slot to "twist" them in so ive had to use 2 screwdrivers to do it, really fiddly. And the smaller LED's for the heater switches/knobs are too bloody big and dont fit in!!!

Was rather annoyed.
Ok so where can i buy a really good set from?

cheers,
Alex

Tried making gap between the metal terminals on the bulb a little bit wider?
I didnt need to do this but it can make the job easier
They do fit honest, its just a case of persevering.

If you go and buy other kits they will just be the same fitting.
Keep trying at fitting them.

lol, theres only 2 sizes. so yeh im sure. the ones in the heaters u just push in not twist too, those push in ones are slightly to big to get in and it loses the connection.

Sorry to bump this, but I've got the same problem...

I've just brought the white LED kit from AceParts, Dash bulbs are dim, MFD still light it up orange and the heater ones are too big :x

I used a drill bit to widen the holes just enough to slot the bulbs in, but they don't work, and there's quite an audible electric hum when you try to turn them on, put the standard bulbs in and they're fine.
