I took mine apart this weekend to check the bulbs as my N isn't lighting, I can confirm that the bulbs are coloured too.

I was surprised to see the coloured bulbs but they are.

Cheers,
Si

Oh just to add that the bulbs are soldered into the board so if you were to change the bulb you would have to have a soldering Iron.

I guess it can be done but you would just have to be carefull.

I may be wrong but it looked like they were soldered in place, I did give it a bit of a pull but you can't really get anything in there to pull out. The clock comes apart really easy, there are no loose parts inside so give it ago.

ok cheers. i was told they can me removed. my problem is. i have just fitted led front and rear indicators and a small amount of current is being passed to either side when one side is on and the green dash light now doesnt work. iv fitted the relay which has solved the flash speed but its still passing current as it was when they were 1st fitted. also to note i have re wired them twice now so there are no shorts in the circuit.

please please help Confused Confused Confused Confused Confused Confused

Did you ever manage to fix this problem?

Im having the exact same problem after fitting front & rear LED's, plus the new relay to slow the flash rate down.

Any info would be much appreciated.

Cheers.

Not sure if the same applies but when i fitted LED indis onto my dtr125 i had to take the bulb out of the dashboard to stop the current being passed onto the opposite side to where you are inidicating. eg. when i turned the left side on the right side lit up slightly. But taking the dash bulb out sorted this.
