Blue Dashboard Lights

Odd Job · 25th August 2019, 22:50

Hi all,

I've seen and read and posted about the colour of the dashboard ilumination on my ZT.
It seems if I want to change the colour of the said illumination then I need to remove the blue LED'S and replace with another colour.

My question is, are all ZT models fitted with blue LED'S?
Its my preference that I would like a red or amber colour, but if I could change the binnacle without the risk to my clocks as my soldering abilities are not the best, then this would be the best solution.
I still want to stay with the MG clocks not change to the Rover 75 magnolia colour clocks.

Many thanks

Richard

Early ZTs had white dash lights, and I'm pretty sure you can't exchange the units without a T4. The only option is to strip the clocks and replace the l.e.ds, if your skills ain't up to the job then Mabey send ricksta (member on here) a PM and see if he can help.
