I have VDO gauges in the dash on my Eagle. Some of the lights in the gauges are burned out. They are really small. Does anyone have a source or suggestion on where to get replacement bulbs?

Check Swiss Army Vehicles in Fayetteville Ar. I purchased a dozen 2 years ago. No problems and were the 24 volt needed.
If you cannot locate I will send the link. Kinda on the run this AM.
Take care

I repaced my lights using NAPA. Many other areas you can search using the web like VDO.

Question for J.C.B., I'm wanting to add an awning on my eagle. I see you have one. who is my point of contact?.

Thanks,

Doug I got a Zip Dee so I could walk under the arms without beating all the hair off my head. I only have two left and I want to save them.

Now with all of the automatic awnings I would look at them. You can contact Zip Dee direct and they will install them at their factory out side of Chicago. Most RV dealers will install them. Mine is 23 feet long and Zip Dee is the only company that has them that long.

If you have 24 volt dash bulbs and they are very dim and hard to see at night put a volt meter on the reostat and mark the position where it is 14 or 15 volts and put a stop on it there. Then switch to 12volt bulbs in the guages!
