Electro Luminescent Dash - Don Bradner - 05-18-2007 16:50

I've been in the dash a number of times so far, but I didn't even know the pyro
light was out.

I have a few bulbs I'd like to replace. Does the dash lift up easily?

It does on mine. Pull the screws, and use something gently at a corner to lift
it and work around from there.

Thanks. I've heard some of the older dashboards are a bear to work on.

That came out pretty well... and it looks more "green" in the photo
than the blue I sense when I see it in person...

Don, I'm astonished. That is so beautiful! You've done a nice job
photographing a difficult subject. You and Bill should upload your
pics to the Photos section.

Thank you so much for the effort.

OK, I created an album called "Dash Pictures" and uploaded it there along with a
daylight picture of the same dash - pictures of other dashes, day or night,
would be welcome in that album. Too bad they don't show the original-size
picture!

Excellent. Good job. You're right though, the bigger pic looks more
spectacular.
