Knob!!

Or rather knobs plural. Does anybody know of a source of knobs for the speedo trip cable and the windscreen wiper service position switch (see attached)?

I have the steering column and instrument panel out of the 'vette and will be replacing all the speedo and tach bulbs. Can anybody recommend a supplier? The only marking on the bulb is W 1895. I found it difficult finding a match online but saw many LED equivalents. Do people replace the instrument bulbs with LED's? Sorry for the newbie questions I've only had my (1970) Corvette a couple of weeks so I'm sure there will be many more!!

Corvette Kingdom supplied the two knobs and a wiper service switch. A 233B bulb (12v 4w) bulb is a replacement for the W 1895 (12v 3.8w) instrument lights and cost me 55p each. It's good to see not everything for a C3 is expensive!:)

If they are not Ex stock from the UK suppliers most of the leading corvette part suppliers stateside would/could supply. Ie Ecklers, corvette central, paragon, Zip, etc.
