Interior lights - HELP

[ineson]

My mrs has just bought a 96 golf cabriolet and some lights on the dash seem to have gone.

The main dials seem to only light up half way across the left hand side is dark so seem to think one or two bulbs have gone there.

Also the heater rings do not light up so wondered how many bulbs I need to replace there.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a quick how to and also where to get the bulbs from , apart fropm scrappies.

Anyone shed any light on it for me?

Excuse the pun

dials are 509t bulbs and the heater is just the 1 bulb and thats also a 509 but with out the base... halfrauds sell them for about 99p each

Cheers

heres the bulb you need..push in type part no 509 (ignore it being green in the pic as clear ones work just as wel)and the dash uses the same bulb but includes the holder 509t

[ineson]

So just the one bulb behind the heater switches then?

How many behind the dash?

[boneybradley]

1 for the heater..and in the clocks there a total of 14 in mine!! all though exclude the warning lights there 8

My heater ones were gone, so I changed the one central bulb for a drand new one, but inly really lights up the central ring, with the two other dials hardly visable, asnd the words "aircondition" isnt lit up at all,

which leads me to beleive there surely must be more than 1 behind there?

that's crap vw design....just 1 bulb!!
