Vette(s): 1982 C3 Collectors Edition 44000 miles, sat in the sun most of its life, My wife purchased it for me for Father's Day in 2007 from her girlfriend that had it for 19 years. It is on the road again. I'm retired but it is now my daily driver.
Guys I have to replace a number of my dash lights.  With all of the trouble it is to get at them I decided I would just replace them all. 


But when I found out how many there were and the local parts store wanted $2.78 for a pair, I decided to look at ordering some from the net.  I was disappointed in that I could not find any that would make it worth while ordering them. 

Then I stumbled on to this site http://www.memotronics.com .

They are an electronic geek parts store that carries automotive lights.  The 194 lights used in the dash are only $.23 with brand name  GE for only $.44.   Shipping is reasonable also and because lights do not weight a lot they mail them first class most of the time. 

That means you will get them in 3 – 4 days. 

Check them out.

This looks like a good place to order a complete kit.
I need to make a list of all my bulbs and order a full set, for future use.

I found ZIP Corvette to have interior light bulb kits averaging at about $30.00. You may want to check them out under the C3 (68-82) section looking at Headlights & Bulbs then I think it's Interior Bulb Kits.Big%20smile

I ordered all of the bulbs I could identify (except the head lights) and with shipping it cost me $32.95.  The ZIP Corvette kit if it is complete would be close but their shipping is a little high and it is not first class mail so you do not get it as quickly.  By the way the one bulb I cannot find a number for because it is missing is the dome light bulb.  Can someone give me that number? 

I should have asked before I ordered I just got excited like a kid in a candy store buying a chocolate bar on a hot day instead of M&Ms.
