Yeah, so now begins a big cleanup to bring the rest up to snuff to match. 😊

And got the dash 90% out now too. Just need to disconnect the oil and temp capillaries and carefully remove them. Although I’ll likely never use them again, I do want to keep that gauge set 100% intact, so I’ll call it quits for today now - the wind is very cold and I’ll lose patience quickly so will do it another day.
Ok, can someone help me with their Googling skills please - I'm trying to find some of the indication lights as per the pic below. I need a blue one for the high beam as the new speedo doesn't have this, so thought I'd replace all of them while I'm at it, as the whole dash will be repainted and spruced up. Ideally I'd like the ones with the prism look to them as these are, but beggars can't be choosers. I'm sure I'm just searching for the wrong thing - what would you call them?
Also, can anyone remember what the orange and white ones are for? I don't think I've ever seen them on...

Those light with the prism lens are far as i
I know impossible to find now in good condition.
They were used extensively on British vehicles including motor bikes.
I think a round type lens replacement is still available though Ashdowns in different colours.......same design, just round shape lens.
Do you have the 101 parts book? I think that I have one... It’s probably a standard Land Rover Part - you just need to find it...
I just on line had a look at the latest Ashdown catalogue and couldn't find what I was looking for........all replaced by LED stuff.
When at work tomorrow I will see if I can find a old part number and see if still available.
Found this - Lucas genuine lamp - Feo Lucas SPB357 Amber LED Illuminated Warning Light Land Rover Series 2a 3 | eBay
Not exactly what I want but will still look good - just need to see if this seller has the other colours I need.
Thats the round lens replacement I was thinking of.........should be still available in different colours.
Found all but the white one. May be able to use something else there - maybe another amber unit?
Back to that question - what are the while and amber lamps for anyway?
Well, check these guys out - Auto Electrical Spares | Suppliers of Lucas Spare Parts & Accessories
Ship worldwide, easy to order - total of 21 quid for 8 lamps delivered to Aus - 2 of each colour (but no the white one) in case I can't figure out which way I want to go with it. [thumbsupbig]
