Ken:
If you are doing this to get the dash lights brighter, I recommend that
instead you relamp your instruments. The lamps in your instruments are 30
years old at least, and will have a dark coating on the inside of the glass.
I relamped mine rather than bypassing the dimmer, and the results were
very
good. The instruments are, admittedly, not brightly lit in the first place but
a fresh set of lamps makes them more than acceptable and you get to keep the
dimmer functionality.
Cheers,
Vance

Thanks everyone. Looks like I'm going to remove tach, speedo and dash this
w/end.... just to short the wires and bypass the dimmer.
