missing lamps in the dash

might be a good idea (as this is a growing problem - even worse on 4ws) to have a sticky for the different light clusters before someone is hurt.

we all drive oldish second hand cars, some of which are equiped with 4ws, should this be faulty, doesnt bear thinking about

It looks like the core lights are there and working (CEL, 4WS, ABS). I dont have my 5G with me so I cant get you a comparison photo

cheers. yeah i think most (if not all) of the important ones are ok - the two missing on the left are for door open and boot open i've discovered.
i've ordered some more bulb holders so hopefully i'll be able to fill in all the gaps before the end of the week.

so looking at my dash board, the missing lights are:

on the left, door open at the top, boot open underneath that on the right. bottom right under the oil light is the hazard light. bottom left is a blank

in the middle, next to srs is high beam and then seat belt light. (underneath is indicators)

on the right, under the immobiliser (key) light and ABS, it's a cruise control button on the left and ATTS on the right. bottom left is a blank.

so i'll try to trigger these and see what happens

(apart from ATTS of course!

)

not that i thought for a second that dan had removed any lights of course, with the amount of effort he put into this car

a final dashboard update - was getting really fed up of the poor dash lighting so replaced all the bulbs and it's finally lit up evenly and nicely. the bulbs that came out were a funny silvery dark colour and i think one had probably blown so i just put clear bulbs in.

i might put some blue condoms on so that it matches my head unit, but i have tried this before and it makes the red lose its colour .

there are loads of empty bulb holders depending on your edition. i have a whole row of them on the left and three spaced out on the right. you have the three yellow lights and all the important red ones. your fine.

Hmm this is true its not a good image... It's good general knowledge that it hides reds tho...
