306 Heater Control Illumination

[Smiley69]

wired 9 leds into my heater board
now there a nice green colour

the lamps wont come out the base's as they are captive they arnt like the dash lamps that fit from behind these fit from the front

Went to the Peugeot dealership in Portsmouth yesterday and he tried to give me the 286 lamps (used in various areas inc behind your LCD clock) but told him they were the wrong ones.

Cully, you're bang on, these lamps are hard wired in and fitted from the front, unlike my Ph1 which were fitted from the back and had replaceable lamps. However the Pug E-Catalogue used at the dealership doesn't show the lights I have fitted.

A small compromise had to be made as they've changed the design slightly. I have had to buy a bulb holder that fits on to the PCB. These holders will take the 12v 1.2w 286 lamps so can now be changed a little easier in the future should the need arise. Bad news is that they were £10.45 (FOR A PLASTIC BULB HOLDER!! ) for a pair and that was with my mate's garage discount.

the hardest part of the job was disconnecting the operating cables which direct the vent to your screen/feet/side vents.

Give me a shout if you need any help or photos as mine is still in bits waiting for the parts to arrive on Weds.
