When I had my gauges cleaned/painted, rebuilt, there was heat damage to the
blue rings around the illumination perforations in the gauge housing, --with
just the normal lights.
Don't you think the brighter lights would be a distraction anyway, unless you
put in a dimmer? (-Kinda defeating the purpose of the halogens...)?

Has anyone had experience using 12 volt halogen screw base bulbs to replace
the usual small bulbs in the dash (3000 BN7)? I was wondering if the extra
heat that halogen bulbs usually generate harms the gages, etc. I have a
new
wire harness so the sockets are all in good shape.
