Can anyone help me find the small red lenses on the dashboard that go in front of the oil light, etc.. I am in the final stages of restoring my 1966 1/2 ton.
Thanks for any help you can provide!

Best bet is Ebay. Buy a cluster. Sometimes $25-$30 for the whole thing. You will have extra gauges and lost of other items as spares. The links from Funky61 are awesome. Great ideas there with pics.
I made some lenses for a 56 GMC using photo gel plastic. Got some free samples online. Didn't need any words on them. Cardboard tubes are available.
