Who carries the tiny bulbs that fit the center console gauges? Checked a couple of FLAPS, scanned PP, haven't found any yet.

Here's the thread on the other board

bulb thread

Complete with some jerk claiming you need to upgrade the wiring harness to cope with the "extra load". Uh huh.

Lessee, 5 gauges. Figure 15 bulbs with all of the idiot lights. Or 45W instead of 30W total with all lights on full. 3amps v. 2amps assuming 14v system voltage for all of 'em combined. 20awg wire (if the other guy on that thread is correct) is rated for 5.5amps. Said jerk thought it was all "only" 18awg, which is rated for 8 amps.
