Okay now, where does this darn thing go?!?

Ummmm it looks like the wrong bulb, ill let someone else confirm that,

The black plastic pots twist off, these hold the bulbs, the larger ones
hold the bulbs for the main display, odometer speedo etc

while the smaller ones are for the warning lights.

I hope this helps :cool:

Which one is the odometer one?

Here is the page I ordered it from...I just looked at the number (74) since that is what was mentioned in an earlier post?:

Just look where the odo is and the bulb should be directly back from it.74 should be the right number.I did the same thing on my 05,as did a bunch of other people.

Nah there is no bulb even close to right behind where the odo is...here is directly behind it:

Where the circled area is is directly behind the odo

I think you have to change the entire colour of the cluster if you want to
change the colour of the odometer,

that would mean swapping the bulbs in all four of the large plastic pots.

DING DING DING DING DING!!!!! We have a winner! You cannot just change the color of the odo on an 03.... you have to change all of the bulbs (2 74's and 4 194's) unless you want to do major surgery and figure it out yourself..

Bingo. I said it MANY TIMES before, I'm suprised you got this far!!

XD = NO ODOMETER BULB....it changes to the color of the gauges!

XD2 = SEPERATE ODOMETER BULB....make it any other you want, no matter what the gauges are!!



:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

So if I order another 74 and 4 194's I should be all set?
