[KevMasher]

I think the lights are slightly different across the different years of GP. Mine is a 60 plate, but was a clearance one as the Evo was the then model. I'm assuming the 2013+ GP is somewhat different still.

I got two in the package i bought for a fiver. My GP still only has one bulb in though...

 

[WillGP]

I have the light that is shown on the following link, there is only 1 hole on the rear of the light.

This is the light i have and i only have on festoon within the light.

 

[Wisey]

Yeah, pretty sure thats same as one i have fitted in my car, only has spot for one bulb I know some of the later Punto's have two separate facing lights up on the centre console above.

 

[DueUno]

Here's mine which is an 07 sporting. Has two lights and needed the 38mm bulbs

 

[KevMasher]

DueUno same as mine that but I some how managed to fit 40mm ones, was a squeeze tho!

 

[WillGP]

If anyone has the 40mm ones and wanta to swap them let me know because my light fitting is the same as wiseys and the bulbs I have ordered are too small !

What colour?? Coz it is quite a squeeze, I've got some bright white ones?? :s

 

[jameslfc5]

I don't suppose anyone happens to know where the fuse is for these lights ?

I stupidly tried changing them whilst they were on (done it before and it didn't make a difference) and it sparked and then all went off

In the glove box. If you've got the USB socket in there, you'll need to take that out. You'll then need some long nosed pliers or a child to get to the fuse.

Mine does have a USB socket

I'll have to have a look at it tomorrow, any idea what fuse it'll be?

And if it will actually be a fuse? Other lights and dials in the car work still :/

5 amp mini spade fuse, think it was top middle, but handbook shows it (just not where the fuse of is). If you look past the USB, might need a torch, you can see the fuses.

Sounds like the fuse - I did the same to mine playing with new bulbs. The fuse only covers the interior light so everything else still works

Am I right in thinking this is a one bolt job? Or is it quite a big job?

 

[WillGP]

I have also got a popped fuse for my interior light i think, does anyone know which fuse it is as i dont have a handbook for my GP ?

One bolt, 10mm I think. I used a socket set to get into it, as there's not a lot of space around it. However, the ratchet then hits the glove compartment door... Once you get it turning, you can do it by hand anyway, so it's just that initial start. Shouldn't be rusted up, which makes it easier.
