Dash Lighting On the late '31's -- how was the dash panel lighted during nite driving.
Or was it? Thanks |

You can see the instrument light in this picture of Marco's.

Re: Dash Lighting And boy does it get HOT if you use an incandescent bulb. I use a LED. Some wire it to their tail lights so it comes on anytime you have your lights on.

Re: Dash Lighting BEST tip ever re: dash light is to install a 12 volt bulb in your 6 volt system!
This REALLY gets rid of that horrible glare! |

What LED bulb did you use? |
Re: Dash Lighting OK< but I see no evidence I've ever had one -- this requires me to drill a new hole? Pride myself on refusing to drill on something that's this aged.
Thanks |
Re: Dash Lighting It is mounted with one of the dash rail bolts! No drilling required.

I used the forward firing firing natural white bulb so it would not be too bright. I was concerned a side firing LED would have too much glare on the chrome dash. By using a forward firing LED, the light is defused some in the dash light cover. Gives off a nice warm light. Almost forgot, my system is 12v. |
Re: Dash Lighting Thanks Ruth.
I do have a 12 volt system. Already have LED tail/stop/turn on the rear and am in the process of installing LED headlights. Next will be the cowl/turn lights on the front. |
