So according to this thread...
www.206info.co.uk/Foru...art=0.html
I assumed it was the 509t bulbs, but I just bought 4 of these, they look the same, but the bulbs from the mfd are wedge shaped and the 509t bulbs don't fit.
I have loads of dead bulbs in my speedo too which need replacing but I don't know what bulbs to get

The ones I bought look like this
The ones in my speedo and mfd looks similar, but the lip is thinner, and the plastic holder is wedge shaped, not squared.

So the ones I currently have on the left, and the ones I got from ebay are on the right.
Does this help?

That seems like a load of p**sing about for some cheap bulbs though, No one seems to know where to get these.

You can buy just the led bulb without the holder, you just pull the old bulb out of the holder and push an led one into the holder, used to be a lot cheaper. I will see if I can find a link but on my phone ATM.
Edit: iirc this type www.ebay.co.uk/itm/10x...6365wt_689

Yes those bulbs just pull out of the holder. Then use your old holders>
