Dash Lights

[FMJ]

The dash indicator lights that come with the Factory Five kit are rather dim. Does anyone make indicator lights that have a greater intensity?

Check with companies like Radio Shack, Del City Electric, and any one of the street rod web sites. Lots of choices for indicator lamps.

Fred!
Hope all is well! Laying the groundwork for your winter dash project I presume. I used LEDs on my own car; great in the daytime but kind of sear the eyeballs at night. As I recall you just have a simple toggle for your turn signals. With AC Bill's comment in mind if you have any desire to switch to a self cancelling setup it would be easy while the dash is out. Drop me a line and I'll fill you in on the Signal Dynamics units I've used on a few cars if you're interested.

Cheers,
Jeff

I used LED indicator lights and found them to be too bright at night. With a little help from the electronics industry I found this $4 dimmer (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003L4KKF2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00).

It will work by grounding all the indicator LEDs through it so all can be dimmed with one control. There isn't much in the box but a small PCB so I trashed the box and mounted the pot to the dash and hard wired the rest.
