Thank you both very much

I found a loose speedometer ground wire after I changed out the gauge light bulbs. Can I ground it to the bracket that holds the speedometer gauge in or does it need to go somewhere else? I think the bracket just rests against the fiberglass dash so not sure if that is a good ground? The gauge light works.
Please help the unknowing ( smile)
Thanks

I need to disconnect this cable to get the speedometer gauge out. Does it screw in or snap in and how do I remove it? I believe only the light and cable need to be disconnected correct?
Is there any special way it reconnects? I don't want to screw it up.
Thanks for any help.

Thanks -shouldn’t I be able to pull the guage out completely ?
Is there a wrong way to put it back in?
Thank you

Finally got all the Led lights in the dash. A bulb did fall in the speedometer gauge and may take it out but leaving it in for now. The second bulb I put in it works. It shouldn't cause a problem should it?
Lights not real bright but at least they are red. About as bright as the 1969 Avanti I had when I was much younger.
Anyway I am happy they are red and I do appreciate all your help.
Thanks
Regards

I did remove the gauge and got the bulb out
Can anyone give me the size of the two bases?
Also if the lights all run on one circuit does it matter for example if I confuse the bulbs for the oil and fuel gauges?
-
In regard to the above it seems that this base is different from the others as the bulb won't seat right - would I need a bulb with a different base ? Or a new base ?
-
Well I got two lights in no problem but the led for the psi guard popped out into the gauge before I could I could reseat it any ideas on how to get it out?
-
Thank you
-
If I am having difficulty would it be possible to remove each gauge to access the bulb?

A83 again - the crack filler I used for the seat is Angelus Paintable Repair Filler

Thank you very much -appreciate the prompt response

I bought red led lights for the dash. I would like to swap the lights out myself but not sure how. Do I go in from the back or do I have to take the gauges off from the front. Is this a relatively easy task?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks A83

I have used leatherique successfully in several areas with success. I did repair a hole in the seat with a new crack filler product that was very pliable and is holding up.perfectly so far as if is in the driver seat. I will see if I can get the name.

Gunslinger are the gel caps a decent brightness or are the LEDs brighter and will they fit the existing sockets? -

Is there a good RED led light that will fit the existing light sockets for the dash gauges?
My 83 has white lights but red lights for the overhead switches.
? and will these lights fit the overhead also?
Is this something I can switch out myself?Thanks for your help.

I am having a problem with both front signal.lights not working and shortly after I put new bulbs in - first the signal lights stop working then the whole bulb. I have put several new ones in.
I am using an 1154 bulb - is this the correct bulb?
Thank you

Thanks I got it out accessing the nuts without taking the seat out - one nut is going to be impossible to get back in the other I did.
Thanks
Question?????? Does the speedometer have an electrical sensor in addition to the cable ?
