Dash light on 28 29 is located in different place from 30 31.

Just wondering ....
The lighting on the gas gauge is not brilliant in either case. I am mostly looking at the speedometer at night, and sometimes the ammeter. I tend to know how far I can go on the gas I am starting out with.

When you first try the 12 volt bulb at night, your initial reaction will be "this is not bright enough". But once you drive in the dark for a few minutes and your eyes adjust, you will begin to see inside the car just fine with the dimmer bulb.
