At least it's easy to find the color codes!Lorne Well Lorne, It's not exactly an uncommon shade of green for a Morgan so I'm expecting a pretty good match for colour!

I have no problem with the 'Brightness' or otherwise of the Instrument Lights; my problem is 'Condensation' on the glass face of one guage!

My 'Petrol' gauge fogs up a lot, the oil pressure hardly ever and the other two do sometimes...

Agreed Phil; I normally prefer to drive on 'Dipped Beam' anyway during the day, ala Volvo. If it was all the guages, you could accept it easier than when it is only one guage!
Unlike Paul, with me it's the Ammeter! Where's the reasoning?

The explanation I was told is that the factory has been using gauges for tin tops and not for open cars. Don't know whether that IS the reason but as I never had any problems like these with my other open cars it could make sense. It all has to do with temperature changes and humidity. I presume there are different temperature zones behind the dash and therefore we see different results. Maybe some gauges are better vacuum sealed than others. After a 30 minutes drive everything is transparent again.  Roderich
