I think I read a thread about that. Might have been yours?

And speaking of resonators.....

ya know this occurred to me earlier today.

The speedo area on my '81 cluster was too small to somehow mount the

metal box and put strips of foam on the bottom to electrically
insulate the bottom of the PBC. Maybe it's dampening the sound of the
buzzer.


Hmmmm.....
