I ended up playing, um er I mean working, on the 911. I put it up on the lift to inspect it, and noticed the crazed cone that attacked me up at Hallett Motor Racing Circuit left its calling card along the bottom of one rocker. Just a little wax-cleaner removed all evidence of the attack. It even got the rim of the rear tire.
Then I went ahead and replaced the dash lights with the LEDs from Carmagic LLC. He has a kit and one spacer. The spacer is for the clock bulb. I just removed the steering wheel to make it easier to get to the instruments. I have a nylon trim removal blade that does great to pry on stuff I don't want to scratch.
It makes a big difference in the brightness of the gauges. Pretty simple swap to do. The one bulb he does not include is the low fuel light bulb for the gas gauge. It is really tiny, and impossible to see in the daylight. I don't get that low on gas often, but it is nice to have the idiot light there in case. The last time I saw it on was on my return trip from Florida. I deliberately try to get back home empty so I can fill up with real gasoline and no gasohol.
