    When I first started scrolling the pics I thought you had the awning up in the Lowes parking lot and expected to see you tomorrow in the A-hole Parking thread. :bananadead:

    Thank you for that. I appreciate it. It's not very bright, but it is illuminated when the lights are on.

    The bulb is probably old. LED swap perhaps?

    Yes. I think they were all original and a couple of them actually still worked, but the glass on them was darkened quite a bit. I replaced them all. Made a big/nice difference. I'm glad the speedometer/tach backlighting is all LED.
