Are your lenses glass or plastic?
Plastic. No point in getting a lens kit as it was abused by previous owner. The circuit board looks like someone attempted to weld a chunk of 8 gage across one of the diodes. Circuit panel is trashed. I have the brake F/R press lights and parking brake switch light that's it.. Nothing else works Yes I can get the 373 and 376 bulbs at bulbtown for .45 If its just bulbs then I will need 22 of them. I looked at the circuit board and assumed the worst.

I am having no luck with this. I may have to disassemble it (again) and do a circuit panel repair. There is enough of the diode left that I can see which end is +/-. I may have the diode in my drawer of avionic parts. As you said its mostly just bulbs. I figured this would be easily found. I mean how many LMTVs have been scrapped. Nobody retains these?? WT_?

My thoughts exactly. If I cant get a complete display Ill get a lens kit. My lens is toast.
You said you have a lens kit. I got a working display but the lens needs to be replaced. It is plastic. So is this kit a bezel with the lens or do I cut out the old lens and put the new in the bezel
