Dash bulb holders and resto paint

Post by Ian Z »

Hi, the black plastic twist in type holding the glass-blade bulbs in dash? Are these fairly standard to many makes?

Any advice on paints for gauges. Need the white and the needle red/orange.

I had brought some in the past from Richard Ehrenberg (Mopar Action writer), but he's not selling any at the moment:

thnks for links J-man. Will have a gander.

Hi Novaks', will check but fink I needs 4. Were always missing, so with dash out would be rude not to complete the set.

Did a surpisingly good job of fabbing a new circuit board. original was warped with tracking hanging off. Wasnt gonna pay $150 for new un. May be able to reproduce more if enough interest. Cant find correct replacement pins for the loom connector block tho, so have to clean and reuse originals.

Anybody any recommendations on the dial paint? US company does em, but not sure yet if paint would get kicked out during shipping.
