Hi everybody!
I was just wondering my MR2 had no light ring around my ignition lock. It is a '99 N/A. Does anybody know the part number of this thing? I want to order it, but my local dealer can't help without number....

Re: Ring around ignition lock
ive never never never heard this before.i though they all light up.??
It probably looks the same behind it like the back of the cigar lighter, an LED in a case making it light.
Wild stab in the dark... is it just a UK thing again??

Re: Ring around ignition lock
Nope, I think all 2's that were made after 1996 do not have this ring. Here's a pic of a 1990 MR2:
The ring around the cigar lighter was removed when installing the S2000 startbutton.
[edit]Well, I just read the ring is missing because the transponder of the engine immobilizer is integrated. There is no space left, not even for a single bulb [/edit]

Re: Ring around ignition lock
Usually it's green, that's correct. Unfortunately it's not my interior on the pic. Yes, a blue LED has been installed instead of that green illumination. Looks great IMHO.
