Post by southcoastkustom »

I want to use green globes (can be led's) in to replace my original white dashlights, can anyone tell me where to find them?

I have green covers that fit over the globes. The Autometer guages come with red and green globe covers (they are soft - like silicon), don't need them so if you want them let me know how many and I will post them or give them to you at the Nationals.

Yeah, I have some of them somewhere, like little condoms :lol:

SCK, You could try Jaycar or any other electronics store. There's an LED store (or used to be) opposite the old Mitsi site, just north of the &*#@ dealership, worth a shot. Otherwise talk V8EK4US, myself or Guageworks about the condoms.

I bought some in Japan SCK.

Although, I did also see them at Malz Auto the other day too.

Let me know if you get stuck and I will get you some.

Does anyone have a pic of the stock light globe shape/fitting type?

Can they be replaced with leds available on Ebay?

Its a small bayonet style fitting, have seen some on ebay, but only as a kit 'to suit mustang dash'. Seem a little pricey and not sure if they will even fit.
