charleseaton1 Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Anyone know what these bulbs are? Small 1 is for clock and the bigger 1 is for the rev counter/speedo/ fuel and temp gauges of an impreza classic. Just need wattage etc as these dont have any markings on. Both have blown so need to replace them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I used 5w5 bubs in mine a few months ago, change the whole lot though otherwise you'll have a brighter area on one side than the other Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Looks good that mate better than the red bulbs I used but mine wasn't the blue LED bulbs just the normal bulbs might have to try the LED's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charleseaton1 Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 The more i look at it the better its becoming. I wasnt sure at first but its starting to look nice. I want the front fogs yellow with yellow sidelights and headlights too i think that will look smart means she is yellow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charleseaton1 Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 If you order them make sure their 5mm wide at bottom as i struggled to find them as some are 9mm and wont fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr B Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 yeh T5 is 5mm & T10 is 10mm Blue looks nice, smart but subtle, is dimming range working on them sensibly . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charleseaton1 Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 I dont have a dimming range on this car their just on The bright switch however dont work the clock stays the same brightness so will look at the switch itself when i replace the bulbs behind their. Previous owner has messed about with all the dash sprayed it silver which has bubbled so going to pull it off and re do it all and check all wires as the heater control sometimes dont work either think loose connection. Also do the side lights stay on front and rear when engine is on? I know the parking switch works when keys are out but for some reason even when engine is running the lights are alway on despite the switch being off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stants Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Hi mate, sorry i've been working/sleeping not done heater but i see you've already done it. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charleseaton1 Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 Yes it was a pain to do to be honest very fidley. I used the same t5 bulbs that are in the instrument panel. But the light reflecters (plastic tube that reflects light) next to the bulbs are only half their. The other have was missing i guess who ever done them before broke them as the bulbs i replaced was coloured in with what looks like permanent marker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
