Bulb that provides the backlighting for the gauge. Mine is burnt out and just wondering what I have to do to change it.

There should be a rubber grommit on the back of the tach...Remove the grommit and with some needle nose pliars turn the bulb retainer 1/4 of a turn to access the bulb..Then just replace the bulb...

mine has the built in shift light with control on the tach, so the light is on the front, if urs is in the case, have fun, just take it apart carefully and put it back together the same way, cross my fingers that the cobra's tach doesnt need one, the cobra tach has the bulb in the case [Mad]

i just read the previous post, the one on the cobra cant be pulled out through the grommet, i hope urs is different, because the my cobra tach is gonna be a bitch when it goes out
