Changing a 501 / T10 Bulb to LED

Original Bulb

This is the bulb and holder taken directly from the dashboard / Interior light fitting. As you can see it looks quite like a complete unit.
Original Bulb disconnected

Here I have removed the bulb element from the base.

NB: Do not pull too hard, some of these fittings are soldered in and you could damage the bulb if you're too heavy handed.
Original Base new LED bulb

You can see the similarity between the LED and the standard bulb fitment, it's now a simple job of pushing the LED in place, please note that this is a square type LED and does not fit in some dashboards, we are now only supplying the round type for this purpose.
New LED fitted in original base

Job done! the LED is in place and ready to go, please note that an LED has a correct and incorrect way of fitting, if you find the bulb does not work when first installed remove the holder, turn through 180 degrees and replace.
