Are there suppliers for these? I need three, and Google is giving me subpar results. :roll: Also the local auto parts shop can't fit any bulb holder into the gauges -- they're not used to Morris Minors where I'm from.

No connection, a satisfied customer that's all !!

Thanks Bob! That looks a treat. A merry Christmas to you. :)

I have more questions though. Which bulb holder is it that goes in the smaller, 'long' hole in the 52mm gauges? I see the 5/16" ones for the speedometer. Also, I see the 2.2 watt screw-in bulb that's correct for what was originally in the Minor, but could their 6 watt bulb be used in the same place, to give more light?
