Lamborghini dash light bulb, where can i buy one?

[Rapid rental]

Hi, i have a Jalpa and one of the bulbs that light one of the heater controls in the centre console has blown, its tiny and there are no markings on it at all! i have tried eurospares and they cant get one, i really would appreciate any ideas where i can source one.

Take it in to your local branch of Maplin, if the bulbs are the same size as the ones Maserati and Ferrari used at the time, they did stock something useable

Thanks Andrew but they cant help, i am after a midget flange bulb. Its tiny and Lambo cant supply one and neither can eurospares. The only ones i can find are 28v and i need a 12v. thanks anyway for the reply.

try asking Raymond Stofer - he's a font of all knowledge on these cars

go to www.jalpa.ch or contact him via a post or message on www.lamborghini-Talk.com

Just a thought, if you have the skill disassemble the bulb and solder in a small white light LED (and current limit resistor). You'll never have to replace it...

Cheers

TimboL, great website thanks for the link, i think they have them. Only thing is, they have two sets of midget flange bulbs, one is 12v and 90mA and one 12v 100mA, as my bulb has no markings on it, how do i know which bulb is correct, any pointers? cheers

At that price, it might be worth buying one of each.

Put in one and if it is too dim/or blows, you should have put in the other one.

Though I think one of my dash bulbs has blown too.

Must be the season.
