Spedo bezel

Jack - I looked...you've got the green hard plastic thing that's got threads on the rounded area & a flat area to hold it in the dash? I think I have some of those in my used bin
 
hmmmmm - the ones I have are a bit longer behind the dash
 
Dash is just a peice of sheet steel and a covering of fake leather.

Guess I will check out Home Depot for something that will screw on there for starters.
 
Trust me... If'n it's SAE threads... you'll find something to hold it on (plastic or metal)... Even if it's Metric. I've finished alot of weird things that I couldn't find parts for with the help of the hardware section at Home Depot! Just remember to carry it with you!
 
Nothing against Home Defect, but I'd rather go to a home town ACE or independent store where the help smells of cheap cigars and everything is dusty.

BTW, Which car does Brain drive (Gosh I miss that cartoon!)
 
Jack, Tony's right: those lights were used a lot in Triumphs, and I think I recall 'em in Jags.
 
I know they're in Jags - my friend who has a salvage yard has about 7 or 8 Jag sedans & I've been behind the dashes of most! Instruments, you know....
