Help needed finding LED bulbs for Puma dash

**alittlebitconcerned** · 27th January 2015, 10:46 AM

Hello wise forum.
I'm after some LED bulbs to replace the standard bulbs that illuminate the Puma Dash. I've found some old threads on where to get bulbs for earlier model defenders, but not the Puma.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Cheers.

Got a pic of the existing bulbs?

Auto One sells LED replacement bulbs if you take the original in to match the bayonet size.

Cheers,

Lou

I thought I read somewhere that some LED replacements are too long.

Hi Ron,

I think you might well be right. The "forward facing" bulbs might work, but the ones with a bit of spread is usually too long.

Only way to find out would be to remove one and compare I suppose.

A few types for reference...

I think it is the 9 SMD bulbs that may not fit. The 5s should. Only a couple of $ to get them out of china.

I tried but failed to get a photo up. Still it looks like you guys know the bulb anyway.

Thanks everyone for helping. I'll buy some of the ones in the link provided and post how it works out.

I looked at pictures of the T10 bulbs and they look way bigger than the 19mm long bulbs I'm trying to replace. I could be wrong though.

Hopefully the link to a photo of my bulb works, regardless here is what is written on the bulb...

OS 12/1,2 n3g

Thoughts?

The above 5 led T10 are too long.
I have them in my 95 defender and they keep falling out, mainly the 2 in the speedo.
If I was to get leds again I would try these. They look like they would fit better.

I have some of them in my defender, they are slightly too large diam. and require a bit of file work to go in the holder, otherwise OK.
