RE: Dash Lights

[Travis Goodwin <tgoodwin@xxxx>]

I've mentioned this before, but I have replaced a good portion of my bulbs
with pinball machine bulbs. They are ideal because they are bright and have
a low temp. Since they are designed to operate around sensitive plastic
parts, they have proven to be quite nice. My binnacle illuminates and I can
actually see the instruments! Plus, the bulbs are cheap and come in boxes of
ten, so replacing every bulb is an inexpensive option.

Here's a link for you. Don't click on it becuase it wraps. Make sure you
cut and paste the entire link (it's long):
