I'm looking to change a number of bulbs throughout my bravo. I hope someone can save me taking all the originals out to find out what type of bulbs they are? I want to change all the interior bulbs listed for blue ones and the sidelights for some a bit whiter if that makes sense!?!
The bulbs i want to change are the one in the boot and the 2 interior lights. Also does anyone know if you change the backlight bulbs will it light the dash the colour of the bulb or is it like the punto mk1 with tinted perspex giving the dash its colour?

Ok, all courtest lights, boot, glove compartment, ceiling light, take cylinderical festoon bulbs (approx 36mm), only the ceiling light is 10W and the rest are 5W.

The sidelights are 501 W5W bulbs.

The back lightning on the dials is created by a green film on the back of the dials. The bulbs behind the dash are clear not coloured. If you have a MK1 you can fit Lockwood dials to change the colour. Mk2 dials are not available, well they are available but they dont include kmh just mph.

LINK to dials.

wondering if someone can help me.. i wanted to change my ceiling light in my punto mk2 for a blue LED one, so took the old one out to see what one i needed. put the old one in until the new one arrives but the old one doesnt work. iv tried turning it around to get positive and negative the right way and wanted to know if i need to change the fuse? any help would be appreciated??
 
Quick question, a lot of the led festoon bulbs don't seem to have a wattage rating. Some do say C5W though. I found some blue ones that were C10W but I've got blue at the moment and it looks, well, sh*t. Want some nice ice white ones. Will the C5W ones be ok in the ceiling lamp?
