A couple of the bulbs behind my instrument cluster have given up the ghost.

Sure - I could take it all apart, find out what type of bulb it is, put it all back together, order some bulbs, take it all apart again, fit the bulbs and put it all back together again or I could ask on here what type bulbs I need and save myself from duplicating the work.

Does anyone know?

Yeah, I'm sure someone does :D
 
Fit LED's in different colours; ''twas very popular back in the day :thumb A search should get you to the correct type.

Thank you - and I prefer to think of it as 'efficient' rather than lazy, but otherwise you're spot on :D

Everyone I post a picture it always displays sideways! Don't know why? You'll have to turn your screen to view :p
 
Amazon has lots, all different colours; help yourself :thumb
 
Take off the screen and the silver cover and you can just pop the rubber bulb-holders out. Pointy pliers if, like me, you have fat fingers.

Be aware that LED bulbs will only work one way round. :rob
 
Going to update my dash bulbs whilst the bike is in bits. How many are there that I need to order?
 
I think you need 4. The ones I got off Amazon came in a bag of about 10
