Finding out for a friend. One of the instrument cluster lights are gone on his polo vivo sedan. Can he change the bulb or does he need to replace the entire circuit board?

Re: Instrument cluster polo
@hubbly_bubbly has changed the colour of his lights on one of his car's clusters before. Maybe he can share his knowledge if this is possible?

Re: Instrument cluster polo
The board only has surface mounted LED’s.. just need to replace them. Buy a few and replace all of them in any colour you like.

Re: Instrument cluster polo
Yes Yes. It is possible to replace. You do need to desolder the blown LED and resolder the new.
Great opportunity for a colour change if you are up for it.
