Title: Insrument panel illumination
Post by: Eric Olthwaite on 29 May 2009, 23:38:00

Anyone know how many bulbs illuminate the speedo and rev counter? I've replaced the one on the left and on the right but it still seems a bit dim in the middle.

Three bulbs across the middle (yellow bayonets) 3W bulbs - Not the more common 5W of the same design.
