thanx bra ......

ok so i already stripped it 2 day .....if any1 else is interested this is how u strip it
1--take out screws at the bottom (near ashtray)
2--just behind your vents ,next 2 hazards there are also 2 screws .....u have to pop off the vents they come off quite easily with a flat screwdriver
3--to play it safe i 2k off the covers over the steering wheel as well coz the centre cosole goes underneath it and there is also a screw there

4-- once u've done that the centre console should come out quite easily

TIP: its a good idea 2 take out ur deck/radio/loader as well

shot outjie- did u get other globies? where ? how much ?

i thought that k@k place midas would have it ....they had some globe that i thought would've worked in there ....but not so surprising they didnt ...ai ...and then i had 2 use my car the next day so i had 2 put it all back 2getha again without the damn globe in there........its only 1 globe and the fool who had my car b4 took the globe out coz there was no globe soz i cant even show the spares places a sample .....if some1 else is doing this then plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz let me know what type of globe it is

There is more than one bulb. as far as I remember it is a globe that is all glass and fits into a holder. if the holders are all gone you have more problems.

not the grey and green ones behind the cluster, these have black holders with two big pins at the back.

hahaha......i 2k it off so i saw where it needs to go ....it looks like 2 "prongs" and the globe goes inbetween the two these "prongs" also have holes in them where the globe/bulb would fit in2

u know u might actually have a point there .....could possibly have a plastic holder with the contacts on the outside of the said plastic holder.....mmm

i think i got of these lights
pm me and il get back to u
