Two bulbs in the dash on my 1970 Duster has gone out. I did a search and found these linked on the board

http://store.candlepower.com/w3w3.html
and these
http://store.candlepower.com/w5w.html

Will they work for my Duster, the last one is a little brighter if i understand correclty?

Also, anyone know where I can order an in dash voltage regulator?

You can buy W3W (Sylvania 2821) and W5W (Sylvania 2825) locally. W3W is stock brightness, W5W is brighter. WY5W (Sylvania 2827) will tint the light amber, so if your dash has the blue plastic filters you'll get a nice green.

The only instrument cluster voltage limiter worth messing with, AFAIC, is here.

Based on Dan's advice, I put W5W (2825) bulbs in my '67 Barracuda dash, and they're noticeably brighter. It's great to finally be able to read my gauges at night!
