Please Add Info

S2 Non Air Con Cars / Pre MY04

  • The interior light on poverty spec / boggo spec / pre MY04 cars is located just above the fan switches, it is unknown if the LED modification will work on this.

Please Add Info

S2 Cars With Air Con, or MY04 onwards

  • On early cars with air-con, or from MY04 onwards the interior light is located behind the seats.

And once again our resident handy man SELOC member Dobbin has this nifty little trick.

The standard unit is the same as the ones found in the Citroen AX and possibly other PSA models (SAXO/106, 306 etc). If anybody wants to buy one for a donor these can be easily found in a scrapyard
