Anyone have a good photos of the back of the tach and the lighting arrangement in it? So I can give it a good think...

OH CHIT....
sorry guys ITs NOT THE SPEEDO GUAGE , ITS THE RPM GUAGE.
sorry about that, the speedo guage has a bulb in the back somewhat same as the other guages, an easy swap out, its the RPM guage that has nothing on the back of it.
this is driving me nuts  also i just noticed that the amps guage is all white plastic on the back, not built like the others.
as for the fuel guage being not as bright, im going to try and cut off the end of the bulb plug to see if i can slide it in deeper to give a brighter effect.
hey blas, ur a elec guru, do they make anything as an adapter to extend the light bulb further away from the plug, an extender if you will? |

Be careful how far you push the light socket in...read my post below...Any bulb should not project more than 1/16" beyond the back surface of the metal housing for the oil and temp gauges...

Glued in bulb
When I needed to change my AMPS bulb, I noticed that it [bulb] was glued in, which nobody warned me about. Perhaps because nobody else seems to have it like that. 
When I pulled it out, the glass shattered. I had to empty the big pieces, dig out the leftover glue and use a compressor to blow out the tiny bits.
If I were you, check to see if its glued. If not, pull. If it is, I would try to work something thin and sharp to cut the glue first. It'll be worth it. |
