Hi, Brent.  Great to hear from you.  Hope you and Julie are both well.  I've been been busier than a termite in a lumber yard rebuilding that interior light.  All I need now is a bulb to see if it works...  

 

Local parts stores have 12 volt bulbs, but I'm hoping for a 6 volt.  Being the dull character that I am, I need a dull light.

   From the download page referred to, there are 2 bulb’s that will fit. A #63 is 3 candle power and a #81 is a 6 c.p. I’ve bought 6 volt bulb’s at O’Reilly. They probably won’t have them on hand, so call ahead. Or eBay for 10 bulb’s and free shipping.

Hi John!

 

GE 51 or 55 fit the gauge clusters or speedo's

 

Ebay has both bulbs.

Thanks, 9 Foot Box, for helping me out.  It's appreciated!  I'll try ebay...
