if the plastic bulb holder doesnt fit in where the speedo bulbs go, just take the leds/bulbs out of the small plastic holder, and put them in the large plastic holder then they will fit and work on the speedo

 

all the bulbs and leds are the same, its just the plastic holders that are different sizes

 

so just swap them around, sorted

 

it works because this is how i did mine

and it doesn't work because I tried it :roll:

 

I had to break the bulb to remove it

 

try again, and don't be heavy handed

 

there a tight fit, but they can be removed

 

if it doesn't work once you have swapped the bulbs or leds over, make sure the contacts on the leds or bulbs are touching the contacts on the bulber holder

 

its not rocket science to be honest, if i did it, it really isn't hard lol
