Does anyone know the bulb number for the Faria tachometer? The Faria site does not show pictures so I cannot verify which bulb I need.

http://faria-instruments.com/cgi-bin/site/site.cgi?manage=marine&select=yes&size=2&type=LIGHTING_AND_ACCESSORIES&prime_display=type&exact_match=whole

The bulb itself is marked HTG2 194K but I cannot find that listed anywhere.

Its a 194 bulb. I replaced mine with all red LEDs, but the 194 bulb can be found at walmart or any auto parts store.

Thanks. How did the red LED's look?

Not as bright as the regular white bulbs, but a lot easier on the eyes. If it tells you anything, I switched the gauge and cockpit lighting all to red LEDs on my Sundowner, but only did the gauges on my 268.

That is useful information. There are so many shore lights on my lake that you never really get your full night vision. The red probably would not work for me.
