Be careful opening the instruments some have radioactive materials (glow in
the dark) this can cause you to check out early...
Try cleaning the lights and lenses you could try clear or green filters I
have seen them at swaps.
My Dodge WC 52 dash is so dark I drive by ear. I know I can't possibly go
faster than the speed limit even down hill so I just listen to the transfer
case and can tell when the oscillations are pushing the max. (3400 rpm) it
sounds like its rolling over at one second intervals when it starts to sound
like one big screaming sound its to fast and I back off otherwise it might
have a departure at the small end of the rods.
