Default 1971 Corvette Dash cluster bulbs

For 1971, what are the correct light bulbs used in the center dash, temp, gas, oil, clock, amp gauge.
Thanks for all the help on issues that I have run into.

Like the chart shows that Willcox posted. It is the 1895 bulb.

But I might suggest you look into using LED's unless you are gong for judging.

The LED produce less heat, use less power, last MUCH longer and provide MUCH better light.

I get mine through Super Bright Leds. and my customer really do not care if they can dim them. I also get the bulbs for the footwell light and they are SUPER BRIGHT and really light up the floorboards when the door is open at night.

Footwell light bulb part number is 1156-CW3W-G
Gauge bulb part number is BA9S-CWHP5
