Smith’s Gauges Lighting Upgrade:

[cobrasnake]

Blas - thanks for e-mailing your instructions. As with the SPF wiring diagram, these are very thorough. The PayPal purchase was easy and cheap; now the hard part will be tearing apart the dash to install the new bulbs. Thank goodness it is still winter. I will re-read the instructions several times, but between the photos and detailed instructions, I don't expect any problems.

Thanks again - Tom

My paypal is on the way Blas. If this is even 1/10 as good as your wiring diagrams it's money very well spent!!

Tom,
It's really not necessary to "tear the dash apart". By just removing the Speedometer and the Tachometer, this should give you full access to the smaller gauge lighting fixtures above them thru their two openings in the dash. The bulb holders just pull out with the bulbs attached. Except for the Tach's unless you have an early style Tach. Then the upgrade is really simple.

Got it Blas!! Looks great. Easy to follow, thoroughly documented with great pictures and parts specifications and sources --- what's not to like? Clearly up to your normally high standards for doing this kind of stuff. My weekend project list just got fuller!
