Title: Lancia Beta dash binnacle backlighting; How can I improve the dim lighting?
Post by: VXdeMayo on December 28, 2011, 06:43:03 PM
Dear All,
I am sure someone out there will know how I can improve and increase the brightness of the dash binnacle, as mine is woefull, and I would like to know what is going on at night etc!
If I were to remove steering wheel and binnacle, is it possible to uprate the bulb wattage and how please?
Thanks,
VXdeMAYO.

You can double the wattage of the bulbs with no issues buying them from Halfords workled for me with a sample in hand. Also clean all of the plastic difusers so the light gets out.

Dear Tony,
thanks for that, I would not wish to miss out on seeing all those oil pressure gauges clearly, at night, in the rain - and snow. :o
Or should I have a little more faith in my VX?
Answers on a postcard please!
