Hi Bob,
Thanks for those numbers. I just ordered a bunch of little bulbs from
McMaster-Carr...so I'll report on those when I get them, too.

| A couple of weeks ago Greg Bender et al were discussing dashboard bulbs, maybe it was just for the Eldorado models. Anyways, I recently changed out my Ambo. speedo cable and decided to go ahead and change one burned out bulb. I remembered that guys were having difficulty finding bulbs. I didn't, I just went to Advance Auto parts and picked up a package of Sylvania #53, also noticed that Philips #53 seems to be the same bulb. The Sylvania installed easily. The little glass globe was a bit smaller than the original but the illumination seems the same to me. Just wanted to share, Bob Hawkes |
