Title: look like 509T but half the size. pics inside!!
Post by: sharki786 on 08 June 2012, 19:54
Need them for the climate control panel (golf mk3). As the 509t's are huge these are same fitment but smaller & the bulb seems to be further in.

im after the dark green bulb



iv put it next to the LIGHT GREEN & RED 509T so you can see the size of it (these fit the golf mk3 clocks & are 509T).

the light green is from the speedo:

they not that hard to change. they just Twist out. But what people tend to do is solder some 3mm 12v leds. But remeber to take the green filter out and replace with a clear or frosted 1. I replaced it with a frosted 1. To take the green plastic out all you have to do is unclip the white part of the dial of. i then drilled 5 or 6 3mm holes and soldered on the 12v resistors and all was good.  do a search in the mk3 section.
