Default Help with my '07 DIC...

Three of the lights have gone out on the right side DIC buttons. Can I replace just the bulbs or does the 5 button unit/pod have to be replaced?

Anyone know what bulbs they are if thats all it is?

Thanks!

One of mine is out too. I think it would be a lot easier to replace the whole pod. I dont think the bulbs are meant to be replaced but I'm not saying they cant be.

you need to replace the whole pod. I am doing mine when my new hydrocarbon gauge cluster comes from TKO Performance.

If you are familiar with small electronic soldering, you may be able to replace the bulbs, but otherwise, the whole pod is serviced as a unit.

Ok thanks. So changing light color was something only applicable to the C5's?

Not sure about the bulbs but the "button cluster " can be easily replaced and they are not expensive.

If you can solder, they are easy to replace with these from Radio Shack: http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...ductId=2103780

When I did it, I read on the forum that when you replace one there is a chance the one next to it will blow soon so just replace them all.

These are easy to solder because these bulbs have long leads which makes them easy to hold into position. You will not reuse the little plactic surrounds on the original bulbs.
