Has anybody have any idea how to change the lights in the factory fit Xantia radio please.
It only lights up at the left hand side, are the bulbs the same as the dash ones? ie small capless.

I know that most headunits can have their lighting replaced. Have changed the small bulbs in Philips units a couple if times and can confirm that they were the very smallest of capless types.

Ta, I have managed to get the front off ( the large panel with the buttons) but to get into that I need a tiny torx screwdriver which I will get tommorow.

I bought some of the bulbs from Maplin. I used the tiny green ones, can't remember which exactly now though. they were a bit of a tight fit, but did the job well. In the end I replced the lot, thing there are about 6 of them.
