    Half the dash went dark

    Last night half my cluster went out. The tach and temp gauge are dark. Is that just one bulb or do I have a different problem?

    check your fuses, happened to me and it was a 7.5 amp fuse that was shorting due to the rear licence plate lights grounding on the frame.

    No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

          This method worked. One smack on the side of the dash and it came right on. I laughed my ass off. F*ucking e30s.
