Thread: clock globe disco 1

They have a part number, but I cannot access my documents for reference right now. If you fancy a fiddly job, you can get some adequately sized light bulbs from any accessory store, pull the original one out of its holder and put the replacement in place. Then you will have to push the green sock over the bulb somehow or trying to tint it.
Cheers

Aren't they a bog standard 12v 1.2w wedge base globe like these (available at any autoparts store and many servos):



or are they like this from the P38A:

The clear bulb, part number STC 1205, used in the hazard flasher switch looks slightly different.

I forced a bulb from a spare instument binacle in. It works but the numbers dont display correctly. I have seen this on other Ds. What are replacement options?

It seems they may be the 12/1.2 as that is what it says underneath not site if they wedge or not as unable to remove it from holder

That's OK, Some come welded into the base, others are removable. Either way, they are a common item. See Dash Panel Globes - Products - Narva maybe one of them will do.

Looks like it may be 47744 well check a narva stockist tomorrow I guess
Thanks heaps

My pleasure, I hope I'm right. It's been a long time since I owned a Disco 1 and changed that globe.

Well I still have the old globe to take with me looks very similar so am sure can work it out thanks heaps
