Ok, moving on to my dashboard. I have a Tach, vacuum guage, & temp guage I'm putting into my panel.
My dash mounting plastic piece was in about a jillon pieces so I'm going to have to do something to mount the dash when I reinstall it.
However, I got to looking at things as I took it apart and realized there were no lights behind the labels for the wiper, fuel tank, etc. In looking at the shop manual diagram, I see reference to a fiber optic line.
I THINK I found it. A bulb in a housing (that works with the lights) and a long floppy piece of what looks like woven plastic. I assume this was the fiber optic that was somehow mounted to the back of the labels.
Regardless, it doesn't work and I want some labels lit at night.
Suggestions?
