Hello everyone. Can anyone tell me if the speedometer on a 12/50 can be illuminated during night driving? I can’t seem to be able to find a bulb in the back of the speedometer which would indicate that this is possible. Any info will be appreciated �.

There should be two bulb holders on the back (in addition to those for IGN, OIL and HIGH BEAM). Those holders are (should be) connected to a red wire w/white trace. But you are aware of the "master" dash switch that illuminates the gauges via a second "pull" of same, right? Or has someone changed that?

Lovely-looking car, by the way! thumbs up
