Maybe a idea to get phase 3 clocks whilst you have them out?

All painting done and back in. Boost gauge wired up and all Led's working fine just need to pull out the filter from the milage clock when I next have the clocks out, as I forgot to do this lol!

I bought 2 lots, and then changed the centre clock as well, still have a few left.
since this, I found out you can search ebay for "fruit machine bulbs blue" and could have got 100 bulbs for like £8 lol!
the pain in the arse is scouring off the yellow filter from the inside of the dials to allow the blue light through
