At night I have a very hard time seeing my guage cluster.All of the bulbs are working,because I replaced some of them.Is it possible to get brighter bulbs?????I would love to get the digital gauges,but they are way to expensive.White overlays might be the way to go also.I have read past posts ,and have gained a lot of info on the digital guage companies.They are sweet!!!!!But $700 is insane.That could go towards a 4speed.Thanks for all the info.

The dim dash lights was one of the design deficiencies of the 5th generation El Caminos and the Monte Carlos.

I ocassionally see the "brighter" dash light bulbs for sale on e-bay.

Here is a previous discussion on this topic. http://www.elcaminocentral.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=221&highlight=gauge+lights

Thanks for the feedback guys....I will take the cheap route,and get brighter bulbs,and white inlays.I think it will look just fine.

I put in 2825 bulbs & white face stickers. It made a HUGH difference.

I tried the "brighter" bulbs and I thought they were useless.

i put in the brighter bulbs and also took the black gauge surround out and painted the backside of it silver.
