AarhusTr6 Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 hi this just came with the car and I haven't been able to figure out where on earth it is for does anybody have any ideas all of the instruments seem to be lit up...and looking at the wiring of red and white it is clearly lumination but I just can't figure where it could be for Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steves_TR6 Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 (edited) Is that the glovebox light, or glovebox side footwell light ?? Edited August 29, 2020 by Steves_TR6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AarhusTr6 Posted August 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 I have a bulb in glove box which works... But no footwell light and I can't quite work out where it would go Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AarhusTr6 Posted August 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 I am guessing that it is some sort of courtesy bulb but I just cannot find where it would have been mounted Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlueTR3A-5EKT Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 One of the US spec only dash warning lights? Image from post '74 parts book for TR6 Peter W Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Atl TR6 Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 (edited) Below is where the passenger courtesy bulb is mounted on a LHD car (not my car). During the TR6 production run, I believe Triumph used two different mounting brackets as shown below. My 74 uses the the white clip shown by itself. I think earlier years used the black one shown mounted. That said, the holder looks like it might be for the dash instruments / warning lamps..... which use a red/white wire.

Steves_TR6 Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 This is quite a mystery.... i went out smd photographed the small bulb holders on my 6 , 2 different courtesy light fittings and an instrument illumination fitting. none look quite right ....
