You may have noticed that I didn't take any close-up photos of how the wiring assembly looked on the right side of the radio. I forgot. Pardon me.

Here is how things looked on the left side before I began:

The wiring on the right side looked just like this.

As you can see, the original wires were replaced at one time but whoever did the work did not bother to rebuild the pilot lamp sockets. Now, the rubber insulation in every pilot lamp socket has turned to rock and must be dealt with.

But first, a new wiring harness for the pilot lamps needs to be made. Here it is:

Now it's time to rebuild all of the pilot lamp sockets. I use my standard procedure for rebuilding dial lamp sockets shown at:

One down, four to go. I rebuilt the other four in the same manner, then installed the sockets back on the dial.
