Re: IML: 1963 EL Dash Power Pack

[randalpark@xxxxxxx]

This is correct and J.C. Auto is the best source for this part. I don't 
know about Lexus, but most modern E.L. systems incorporate the power 
pack into the individual lamp. Like everything else over the last 40 
years, electronic components have become compact & MUCH smaller.

They are available rebuilt from JC Restorations if I'm
not mistaken.  Rebuilt is the way to go if you're
going to go to the trouble to play around with it.

MAKE CERTAIN THAT YOUR BATTERY IS DISCONNECTED FOR
THIS WORK.  You will only need one lesson the hard way
why this is repeated by so many others who have gone
through before you.

Since this is a PART, go to that section on the club
website - we have it there under instruments, and you
can look at the PARTS SOURCES for this info.

This would be called the "Electroluminescent Power
Pack".  I suspect that they interchange from 60-63 at
the very least.

The new Lexus has EL, but I doubt that is a straight
trade.
