yea thats cool man, found the lamp holders in my car both passenger and drivers side. just need to grab some lamps then.
when do they come on, when the side lights/ full beams are on or just when interior lighting is on?
do you know if you can get them in red to match the displays?

OK well I'm either missing something or it's not there..

I've put myself in some really odd positions (if I wasn't a Contortionist I am now) I've looked everywhere and nothing.. where exactly did everyone find them taped back to?

I found one connection behind my Glovebox, got all excited, but the cables not long enough to reach.

The connector I found is a female grey and had approx 6-8 pin holes

To be honest I don't think you can really see much.. there's not enough room to take a half decent pic.

Thanks in advance

Looks like you don't have them fitted. You see the hole in the first picture in the plastic tab that comes out from the glove box. That's where the bulb holder would be if you had it

Thanks for the reply, yeah I could see that they weren't fitted to the fitting holes, my understanding were that if they weren't there then they would be taped back somewhere :?

But I couldn't see where, and was wondering where others found theirs?

Incidentally I've found out what the mysterious connector it, it's an AUX cable for the 3.5mm line jack... strange thing is I've already go one of those by the shifter.. :?
