Mine hasn't worked since I bought it, finally decided to investigate and ripped the head unit out to my surprise there wasn't any bulb inside at all :D
looked at the place where the bulb is supposed to go and I got no idea what bulb should even go there as it looks pretty unique.

Anyone maybe have an ebay link or bulb name/number for the bulb that should go there?

Thanks.

Hi. Its a 5 watt festoon lamp like this

Anybody notice that this B's steering wheel is on the wrong side!



Perfect! Thank you! :worship:

yeah that looks rather odd, not in a good way..
 
Just a thought, if there's no bulb in there it could be for a good reason. Many years ago, when Queen Victoria were a lad, I had a car which had no interior light bulb fitted. I replaced the bulb and it blew the main fuse, so I replaced the bulb and it blew the main fuse, you can see a thread here can't you. Got shot of the car soon after that and it still had no interior light bulb fitted but it did have a nice new main fuse!

I had the exact same thought when I found out there is no bulb to start with...
 
well got the bulb, the reason why it wasn't there in first place was because the unit is broken and it just keeps shining all the time, you cant turn it off :D
oh well.. thanks for the bulb info tho!
