Daniel , at the risk of being rude I think you might be getting a bit anal
about the dash lights ! personally I prefer the multi faceted warning
lights.  used to be 10  a penny from breakers yards however would anybody
notice if you had a couple smooth and a multifaceted lens , or tother way
about I doubt it . =E2=80=8BI do have , I think, some red and orange multif=
aceted
lenses in a drawer , Ithink they a re the same as fitted to the original
mini speedo.
