Default Lamps in switches - Phase 2 850

This post may well be applicable to other models also.

I have seen another post reference replacing the lamps in switches, I believe that the cost from a Volvo stealer for a single lamp is about £4.00, I assume that for both the 17mm (9148906) & 9mm (9148908).

I have examined the lamps in question and the lamps can be removed from the holders and replaced, please see photos. sorry that some of the text is blurred.

The Maplins part number is BT43W £10.09 for 10, you may find them cheaper elsewhere, look for 'grain of rice' lamps or T1 wire ended lamps.

It's a bit fiddly if you have sausage finger like mine, but it can be done...
