Dash switches LEDs (replacement)

Post by Polo96CL »

Can someone point me to the correct replacement LED's for the dash? I want red switches and don't want to cough up for ibiza switches when I can solder them in.

Cheers!

Do the old style 6n clocks have illuminated dials, or is it lit from above green?

Its a green filter alex, can be swapped for a ibiza one in red i think. i'm talking about the heater switches etc too though, its a solder job.

No old switches apart from a window switch, ideally to go for a look like this, only with the red numbers/settings then the blue * and -. Mk4 golf style.
