Have you got a link to a lockwood kit? |
ebay will have them ![Wink Wink](images/smiles/icon_wink.gif)
to fit the lockwood kit you will need to take the speedo apart to fit.
changing just bulbs you just need to change the bulbs as long as yours is twist bulbs. |

Thanks buddy. Iv done the clock light which was a pain but I done want to take apart the speedo unit again as I mucked my old one up ![Sad Sad](images/smiles/icon_sad.gif) |
im 90% sure your 2000 model will be twist bulbs that are easy as pie to change, just need to remove the speedo surround, take out the screws that hold the unit inplace, pull it forward and twist out each bulb and put new one in. |

Nick180 is doing mine at the moment as you have to solder new SMD LED's on the newer models, older ones are just twist and replace. The ones that NorthantsBen referred to will only work on older models |
