The bulbs in the drivers side have both blown. The passenger one works and it looks a bit tacky only having one working (I'm a fussy bugger I know). Anyone got any?

Fair comment. But the bulbs are tiny little things. I can't seem to get them out buddy (not without beding and shattering the bulb).

I tried to exchange bulbs in my dash switches (foglights switches and hazard etc...)
I managed to take three out and one of them broke with my pliers Rolling Eyes

If possible, its much easier to replace the switches with ones from the scrappy.....

I just broke my R19 ph2 spare parts car earlier today, i got a set of these you are mentioning. But i doubt u want me to send them since im in Iceland Smile

Did pop down my scrappys but they only had phase 1 switches or laguna Sad

But on a brighter note I got a set of leathers (seats, not whips n stuff) Very Happy
