Hi all

A few weeks a ago i had my instrument cluster repaired to solve the common pixel that we all face, and while i was was having the pixel problem fixed i decided that i wanted to get the white LED upgrade done to replace the standard green LEDs in the cluster. I did some research into a number of different sites that were offering the upgrade and i decided to go with Rudi at www.bmwpixelfix.co.uk - Rudi offers a postal service but i decided that i would kill 2 birds with 1 stone, me and 2 friends wanted to go on a road trip so we packed up the range rover and went on a road trip down to the south of england and on the way back called in to see Rudi and got the cluster repaired and the LED upgrade done. It took around 2 hours for Rudi to do the work and i must say he has done a great job and can recommend him to anyone wanting to get this problem fixed!

These are the pictures of the before and after the repair and LED upgrade.

I plan on getting mine fixed there as he is not far from me. I considered the white LED upgrade and after looking at your pictures I rekon It looks great, and its not much more on the pricing. Reformed

No didnt see which bulbs he used, he too the cluster into his house while me and my friends took a trip to the local pub.... well it was 28 degrees on that day lol

Looks great Matt
I had mine fixed 2 months ago and some are already gone again. The work was not done by Rudi and when I decide to get em fixed next time I'll def take the car to him and get the LED work done as well. FFRR TD6 HSE

That looks great, seems to work well with the green illumination in the rest of the car too

Really 'facelifts' the instrument pack although does look rather bright 2008/58 FFRR 3.6 TDV8 Vogue

The colour's stunning - how bright are they in use? Is the dash distracting? Researching my first Range Rover purchase

I have finally got my car booked in with Rudi on Wednesday to get this done. My pixels have all but vanished now, so I am not putting it off any more! (& he is only up the road from me).

I have decided on the same as Matt, get the pixels fixed and the white led upgrade.

Then its just my passenger side mirror to fix (it does not fold any more), and my squeek from the rear. The garage says the bushes are not worn, just squeeky on one side, so I am going to try holts rubber & nylon lubricant on that.

Oh, and a spare key from the stealers! Then I am sure something else will play up or go wrong ready for me!  Reformed

the range certainly does keep you busy..

Had this done now and if anyone is looking at getting there pixels fixed then I will also recommend Rudi  Reformed

Has anyone out there done the dashboard white LED upgrade themselves and sourced the LEDs ? As I am building myself upto removing interior trim to get sprayed gloss black and thought it would be a good oportunity to upgrade the dash lights to white. Also does anyone know if the grean lights on the center console can be upgraded also to white ?

Thanks.............Adam
