All,
I am in the process of wiring up and installing the dash components (gauges,
lamps, switches, etc.) in a cake-layer fashion; starting with the facia items
(top layer), then working to the plinth (middle) and finally the heater items
(bottom). As I was test fitting the wooden facia to the metal frame, I noticed
that my two lamps (red and green) have a diameter too large (1") for the holes
in the frame (3/4") they are supposed to fit through.
I am fitting thus, relative to the driver..
1. Bezel Nut
2. Wood facia ("squeezed" between the bezel and the tube)
3. Lamp tube (which is supposed to fit back through the metal frame like the
gauges do)
Can someone tell me the correct diameter for these lamps? Am I doing it wrong?
I suspect that mine are incorrect, but I can't see these coming in a lot of
varied diameters either.
Cheers,
Guy D. Huggins
