I have a mk4 astra sxi and bought these leds the other day,

http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=10&products_id=528&osCsid=4eaeaa138764225a0c18a2c66f50c63c

Cannot seem to get them to work behind my dials, the leds however do work behind the lights for the front fog lights and the high beam, i know all about leds only working when inserted one way and have turned the leds around the opposite way. Are they on a circuit so each leds must be inserted correctly for any of them to work, kinda like christmas tree lights? Any ideas wold be greatly appreciated.

£16.45 for 4 plus postage on top I charge £1.85 each post free I used to make this guys leds too

I can't see how you got the leds in the link to work in your fog lights as these are a totally different fit, or do you mean the indication lights on the dash?
