    Gauge illumination

    The illumination on my pro-comp meter gauges blew out. .What type of bulbs do you need to replace? It loos a bit tricky to pull them out. When other people's gauges burned out did you just do the bulbs or replace the meters

    Fastblackmerc can point you in the right direction. He put me onto LED's last year for the gauge replacements and I am very pleased. The LED's do not get hot like the bulb you have now. Shoot him a PM and he will help I'm sure.

    IMHO, LEDs are the way to go.

    Speaking of which (sorry about the hijack!), do you have a source for instrument gauge cluster led swap? Thanks!

    P.S. OP, what Autometer model number? http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ATM-3285/
