    Looks great. I see all our clusters have that twist on bottom.

    What's a twist on bottom?

    No, the Gauge pod is all 194/161 bulbs. Ditto for the Speedometer pod. The Tachometer/Clock and Climate Control takes the 1893 twist in bulbs. So does the Glove box and Radio dial.

    BTW, The Gauge Pod and Speedometer only require two 194 bulbs each. I would not replace any warning light or directional bulbs with LEDs. They will be too bright. I left them incandescent 194s, and the contrast is PERFECT.

    Um
    I think you misread my reply.
    I changed my bulbs as per service manual.
    Glad you got yours done too.
    Also the headlight switch. What a difference.
    Especially w heater controls working correctly after replacing the water valve. Which fixed many va him controls under dash. It Ts off to about everything there.

    Hi Larey, your dash looks beautiful.. I was wondering from where where did you get your wood grain kit?

    Greg Setter way back when he was doing them. They are no longer available AFAIK.

    We have had a problem getting good dash wood grain for some time now. There is a separate thread about it, read up,
