I'm talking lights here. I got on to this site by accident last week and bought up:

http://www.ledshoponline.com/

The 6 LED 2x3 interior replace LDE light is is fantastic. THe HQ interior has given me the ****s for at least 20 yrs. Now it is great. I also bought 4 T10 dash bulbs to fit over the week end:

Ah yes - a point of great annoyance to me too.

I took off those thick blue covers and that helped a bit...these should be awesome.

I have an interior mirror out of a Camaro in the Qute which has 2 map lights in the bottom of it. They also work as the interior light(s). Even with no globe in the original interior light (because it won't be there when I remove the roof), I can read a w

Guys, The T10 dashlight was a straight swap for the original ones, they did seem slightly larger but fitted Ok with the original blue covers all cleaned up. Dr Terry I used the single white ones as per the link at the top of the post. I drove home tonigh
