what bulb do I use? -auto floor shift conversion-
« on: December 31, 2009 - 06:28:35 PM »
I just picked up a light bulb harness for my console shift light. I just converted from a column shift to floor shift so I have nothing to go by. What bulb do I look for at the store? Also where do I plug it in to? I see a 3 prong socket under the dash, but more than one of them? Which one?
Thanks Brad

Says it in your owners manual I believe. If not answered by tomorrow, I will look it up. I have a manual in my shop. Right now I was watching Gordon unload his m46 car off the trailer next door

Thanks everyone! GE 57 then it is! I don't have a owners manual so I had no idea.
