Good point. At least, that's what I did, too. Although, I admit, mainly to
fill up an extra hole in the dash (a DPO bodge?). I used the ignition
warning lamp from a '69 B -- it had the correct vintage styling, although I
would prefer a green lamp to a red one, and possibly one not quite so bright
(good visibility in sunlight, very bright at night).
