    Red face Lcd display only Half lite? 855 t5

    Hi there, just noticed only half of the LCD (trip,mpg etc) display is lite up.

    I was thinking of changing the clocks to a ph1 v70 setup, so not really worried.

    But would i need a New display for now or is it a Bulb?

    Any help much appreciated.

    It's just a bulb, they're on the back of the display so I'm afraid it's a dash out job(got the same on mine that I've still got to do).

    Not saying it is dude, I've done the dash out on most of my cars now so I know what I'm doing, just not got around to doing it yet.
