dash lights

Hi everyone,does anyone have a picture of the back of the instrument cluster on an 1988 f 150?I was putting in blue leds an noticed some bulb holders were missing.If your looking at the dash it would be on the right side above the 4x4/low range and turn signal.There are 4 open holes,what do they light up ?Hi beams or what else?Thanks

If you sit in the driver seat.
Left to right.

Only 3 indicators are shown. I looked at two spare clusters I have and the 4th hole is empty.

High beam indicator-Safety belt indicator-Brake indicator- empty hole

The bulb socket with a 500 ohm resistor across it goes
in the socket hole for the battery charge indicator.

If you sit in the driver seat.

Left side of cluster.
Very bottom row of indicator lamps. Left to Right.
