I got this one !
He is installing an 80mph speedo kit in a truck that didn't come with it. He has a loose wire not connected, that was found to be on the tach harness. He is not using all of the parts that came with the speedo kit. He hooked up at least one wire to where he thought it goes...

Those LEDs don't have a very noticeable difference between DIM and BRIGHT. You could try regular 24v bulbs in there. Regular bulbs shine more to the side. My dash seems to have the same LEDs, but they are not green.
I didn't know the 80mph speedos have there own light. I have noticed in the...
