Before installing the GT cluster into my 144 I wanted to change all the bulbs. good thing I did as a number of them were missing.

There are two kinds of bulbs used. One lights up the idiot lights and the other type the cluster itself.

The idiot light bulbs press into a plastic socket. The plastic socket twists into the circuit board. These are all there but want to replace anyway. No marking on the bulb that I can tell.

The light bulbs that light the cluster itself twist into a socket. That socket presses into the hole in the cluster or gauge. That bulb has OSRAM 3885X on it near as I can tell. Also listed as 12V 6W.

I think I can match something up at an auto store. Just want to make sure I use the correct wattage. Does anyone know the correct wattage for these bulbs?
