Subject:Re: how to replace tachometer light?
From:David Most

Since the fixture is easily broken, can you tell me precisely which
direction I should push and which direction I should turn?

I apologize for requesting such detailed direction, but because the
fixture looks so fragile, I'm reluctant to learn by experimentation in
this case.  I'm sure it'll be easy once I figure it out.

Thanks for the help,
David
