  • Bulbs, bulbs, and more

    Hey guys, Are you having trouble finding replacement bulbs for your dash? I was until I found Bulb Town in Jacksonville, Florida. Everybody told me those mini bulbs in the dash were 74s. So, I buy some 74s, put them in and nothing. They don't light up. So, I start looking on the NET and find Bulb Town. They have an E74 bulb with the European Base, BINGO!! Perfect fit. They also have 194G bulbs to replace the 194s in the dash with the little green rubbers on them, or your can buy the green rubbers instead!

    The part # for the bulb covers is 39-12-4A

    Hope this helps some of you. It sure helped me!!!

    Wonder if they have the plastic part that holds the headlight bulb to the housing?

          As far as I know there are only two sizes of bulbs used in the tach dash. the E74 and the 194.

            White face tack cluster uses a third size bulb. Maybe two of them. Sorry don't remember the size.
