If your cluster mounted dash lite flickers at speed, just add a LITTLE dab of rosin core solder on the tip of the bulb. Seems that some bulbs are a trifle too short & it seems that you CAN'T bend the socket connector goody. A higher candle power bulb helps you find coins in the floor, BUT, it gets HOTTER, & you have to be QUICK, when turnin' OFF the light!!!!!
