So, i went to Radio Shack and bought several LEDS. They came two to a package so i now have two reds and two yellows (for future use?). Thanks to all who provided part numbers. I read the Bentley on how to strip down the instrument cluster. I pulled off the top of the dash and what did i see? Written big in pink paint on top of the speedo box: '87 VANAGON Uh, funny, mine's an '89. Well, i managed to replace the LED... it works like a champ. Even better it goes off right after the car starts up. But.... now i'm freaking out what other surprise lurk behind covers and such. -jspeer |
