Billet dash complete (almost)

I almost completed the installation of my dash I've gone through two sets of indicator/high beam light and they still don't work, they blink a few times then quit. I use a probe light and current is still goin through the wire, I tried some 1/4" LED lights I got from PepBoys however, they are far to bright. I also installed some billet *****. I still have to tighten the screws in the back of the panel.

Beautiful!

Nice choice with the red pinstrip btw, really gives it a high end look.

Hum, some LED’s and small lamps do not have enough resistance to make a standard flasher work, have you tried a electronic flasher, as it doesn’t care?
