The bulb on my Tach is out.  I looked in the Shop Talk of the board and saw the replacement bulb is a #193.  No one here has that bulb in stock.
Does anyone have a better off the shelf brand/order number that I can use?

Thanks in advance for your input.

If it is a standard or tourer, I put in 194LL or 168LL (LL = Long Life) one of the 2 was brighter then the other, and that was the one I used.  Sorry I don't remember which of the 2 it was, but they are really cheap bulbs.  I think all 4 cost less then 3 bucks.

AND if you want brighter or a different color for background on your gauges, check out superbrightleds. they have led replacements for the 194 wedge bulbs. Here's the page   http://www.superbrightleds.com/mini-wedge.html I ordered the 6 led bulbs first but didn't think they lit up around the gauges enough so ordered a single bulb model and they worked good and looked cool in blue.  Jeff

#158[3.3w] 0r #194[3.8w] are good replacements..  #159[2.0w] are a bit underpowered and #168[4.9w] are a little too much..
