Hello,
Have not posted in a while been busy but have made some progress on a few fronts. Today I removed my speedo to fix the odometer. I would like to replace the plastic lens with one made from glass, pelican does not stock these anymore can I simply get some cut from glass or does anyone have a source? Also, is there a simply way to increase the lumonisty of the guage bulbs? Thanks, Dan Attached image(s)
