PS: I got five bucks that says 1 out of 3 people on here didn't even know that was supposed to light up.
Dang, it's that cheap?! I guess I'm taking Thunder straight to the dealership! How much do you think it'll cost to change out the dash light, just the one right behind my electronic odometer/compass?

You know a part number for it and how to take the cover off so I could change it? Autozone gave me the run around when I bought wheel locks for my wheels, so I'd like to have my info ahead of time...lol
