74 Stingray lighting issue

<< < (3/3)

sirfixalot:
The globes are BA 9 type LEDS are available in colours blue look great they are available from ebay. I usually cut all the globe holders off the wiring loom & replace the small crimp on the end.I use a small pop rivet  & knock out the stud then crimp the rivet onto wire

Vettech:
Yes, Sirfixalot is correct! His reply prompted me go out and get past the killer guard chooks and mice, and yes they are ba9s's, "ba" stands for bayonet, 9 is the base dia 9mm, "s" is for single  centre contact. Jaycars has retrofit kits and good Auto Elec shops should have proper LED lamps. I replaced the two rear compartment lamps in the 87 with leds, far brighter, whiter, no heat, uses less current.

sirfixalot:
Up to 76 use BA 9 globes 77 uses BA9 in speedo/Tach T10 wedge in centre cluster 78-82 use T10 wedge 21 of them

Vettech:
The globe in the cigar lighter is a ba9s, the only bit i could get hold of to look at,  and the funny little light in cowling above the metres/guages which is a wedge  - T10.  This exercise has shown me i should not yet being trying to squeeze through windows etc and stretching tooooo much
