    Default Looking for a picture of a Lit '94 530i Dashboard

    I'm getting the feeling that I'm missing some lights / indicators on my car.
    Since I never saw it new, and don't know anyone near me with a car like mine, I'm hoping that someone may be able to show me what I'm missing.

    I have a suspicion that I should have a gear position indicator and possibly a 'A or *' indicator on the dash someplace, for starters.

    I've seen some instructions for replacing bulbs here and there, but I'm reluctant to tear into the dash without knowing whats broken 1st.

    My car is a Black, US, 530iA, with tan interior.

    Thanks in advance,
    -Eric

    Open it up and replace all the bulbs in there... check bavauto.com, you can get all the bulbs from them.

    also try this site for info: http://www.lehrmangroup.com/rickard/

    PS you can change the bulbs without having to remove the steering wheel... it just takes some dexterity to remove the dash.

    i replaced all my bulbs and some of the actual car functions came back... got all the bulbs from autohaus, i think there are 3 bulbs that have been superceded but are available with the new part #.

    edit: from pulling the cluster to having it all back together was less than a half hour, really easy cheap fix.
