Speedwell gauge connection and illumination

Post by Andrew850 »

Hi everybody!

My mechanic is installing for me two Speedwell "Made in England" auxiliary gauges (ammeter and vacuum gauge) and he is saying that we should purchase the bulb holders for the internal illumination.

I was also told that I need a bulb holder for the little red warning light which is attached to the fog light switch panel (which apparently is identical to the one used for the gauges).

Lastly I need an "MGB type pickup" to connect to my Speedwell tacho (Smiths' type).

Would you be able to recommend where I can look for these bulbholders and pickup?

Many thanks,
Andrew

Hi,

Speedwell type is very similar to this:

If you put: bulb holder gauge at eBay you can find several, and perhaps the ones in need.
