Where can I get a 0.9w bulb? The backlight for my OBC failed, so I "borrowed" one from a spare rev counter.
Nearest OPC is 120 miles away...
 
If you wanted to go the whole hog, you could replace them all with LED bulbs which brightens up and modernises the dash. Steve (Citori) did it on his 993, I've got the bulbs to do mine but yet to get round to it. Bulbs were very cheap from fleabay.

Plenty of options - thanks for the links guys.

I'm wary of fitting a higher wattage bulb, incase the extra heat generated damages the plastic components.

LEDs look like a good idea. In fact, I've got a faulty bulb, a bunch of resistors, and some white LEDs........
