Gauge cluster
I know I've seen the conversation here about the little foam bumpers in the cluster are actually called so I can get a set for mine.
Tried searching, but I don't know what to search for.

Re: Gauge cluster
I believe this is what you're looking for - you have to cut it into segments about 1" long and place it around the lens to hold it in place to prevent rattles. PN 38-6980 (#11 in the picture)

Re: Gauge cluster
If you don't want to go thru the motions of ordering thru mail order and waiting, you could squeeze out some long 1/4'' beads of RTV on wax paper, let them cure over night, cut into 1'' lengths, and peal off the paper.
Might work, and you'll only waste a few squirts of silicon.

Re: Gauge cluster
Tried some green LED bulbs. Not sure yet.
And discovered a peterbilt horn button fits in a lecarra style wheel like it belongs
