Speedo & tacho bulbs

[philip600]

Hi, I want to replace the dash bulbs in my 2004 SP6 & have read the various threads on the subject. The trouble is there are quite a few differing bulb types quoted so I decided to take the binnacle off so I could check which ones I need. Anyway having got the binnacle off I can't see were the bulbs are in the speedo or tacho ? Can anyone help or point me in the right direction. Mine instruments are the later ones with the digital mileage & trip readings if that makes a difference.
Many thanks, Phil.

You'll find the bulbs under the rubber caps. I've tried a few LED replacements and for both the speedo and rev counter they don't really improve it much.

Hi, cheers for that. I'll have another look this weekend. Phil

Hi again,
I've had a better look today & found some tape over holes in the rear of both gauges, I think I can see what I presume are the bulbs but can someone tell me how they come out ? I don't want to go pulling on them in case they twist or visa versa !
Regards, Phil.

Yes they twist out. I've put tape over mine in the past when I've lost the cap down the side of th seat. Everytime I find it I put it back

Please can someone tell me what size bulb is needed for the rev limit/change up light? I think an orange led should go in my currently empty holder.

Thanks
