38-7 Cabinet Restoration
#9

Crist,
Thanks, this is great, I will be making one for my system. I had one other question.  I cannot find a bulb for my dial.  Do you know what type of bulb you used in the dial?
I tried a #44 but the glass bulb is too large to fit, because it is fed from the back. It looks like the bulb needs to have a smaller glass envelop than the base. I can't find anything like that at the auto stores. It reminds me of the old lightbulbs we used for flashlights, where the bulb was inserted from the battery side.
