Hi,

I bought some led's to replace the factory globes in my au because half the odo is barely visible at all.

I got the cluster out no probs and all the globes with holders replaced, but how do i replace the globes behind the actual lcd? Or is it soldered on? Would i be better off getting a new cluster?

Stick a flat head screw driver in the groove and give it a 1/4 turn anti-clockwise and they will come out the back of the lcd display , cheers

Thanks for that. Now, what kind of globe are these? They dont seem removeable from. The holder like the others, and i already smashed the blown one trying to get it out. Any idea where i can get a replacement? Cheers.

No they are one piece I got some led ones off ebay or I suppose you could get them from ford. (the ones I got off ebay I had to trim the locking tabs so the would click in)
