Astra G LED Tuning Tutorial

On popular demand from my YouTube "Opel Astra G Led Tuning" video, I have decided to make a tutorial on this subject "How to change the interior lights of your Astra G". This video is a quick guide that helps you modify your interior Astra G instrument lights. Hope this will be of good help to all those of you interested these modifications.

For more information and details, follow the guide from my blog at this link: http://tigergts.blogspot.com/2009/12/opel-vauxhall-astra-g-led-tuning.html

@bradygooner49 Please see the other comment you've made on the video. I replied on that one!

Hey there just done mine but the light from the heater controls etc is really dim is there some form of fix for this cheers

@bradygooner49 Hello! Unfortunately that is a bulb brand problem. Happened to me, too. The bulbs are not that powerful and the light they produce is not intense enough. The only thing I can recommend is to buy another brand of bulbs, more intense. (The cars works on 1,3W bulbs and 1,5W bulbs, although the 1,3W is preferred)

Also, check if your interior & hud light adaptor (under the light switch) is turned all the way to the maximum (although I think you already tried that)...

Good luck!!!

@bradygooner49 EDIT: be very gentle if you're sanding the end of LED's, you can easily break em

@bradygooner49 Check Astra forums aswell to see what they've done. The dull LED and patchy glow seems fairly common. Some have used a fine grain sandpaper on the end of the LED's to produce a brighter light and a more even glow.

Good job TigerGTS, well lit with a nice even glow. Hopefully mine goes that well.

well not realy a tutorial but it could help a bit

First of all congrats for the car! About the adaptors I am sorry but I can't help you for now, because I don't know any specifics. I bought them from a shop where they also install interior lights, but they wanted too much money for the installation so I just bought the bulbs & adaptors and installed them myself. I will however ask a friend who works at an Opel dealer to tell me some details and I will inform you. Please send me a private message so I can contact you by mail. Have a nice weekend

@1984DaaBuu: Yes, they're all the same. But keep in mind you need some adaptors for the ones in the "hud" - speed, rpm, fuel & temperature indicators. (4 adaptors if I well remember)... Cheers!
