I don't recommend white faces, but other colors are good .... 200 1993

What would be swell if we could replace the gauge faces with those that have translucence through the numbers and letters as on more modern dash display designs.

Though these designs also have a illuminated needle for the speedo, fuel level, temp, when your hot tea is ready, and the like. That'd be hard on our 240 dashes, though I'll bet someone on the bb has already accomplished such an innovation like years and years ago.

Else, everyone needs to consume more canned pumpkin (Libby's is best!). Seriously, have some punkin (pumpkin) or the like. The vitamin Ayyyy in canned punkin is more bioavailable. Give it a little time and you'll have greater nyght vision. I like canned punkin, yet even my punkin pie recipes give me massive heartburn.

I'm not sure what they use for a light source, yet you can dim these.

Hmm, I just realized how little I spend in other auto makes nowadays. And that's just fine with me and my three 240s.

Merry Happy and Season's Holidays!
