Instrument dashboard for 906

I am looking for an instrument dashboard for my recently purchased 906. It is currently being modified with 17inch wheels and fairings re-sprayed. I think the indicator lights don't show on the dash (although I haven't really had a chance to check out what does and doesn't work). It is possible to change lights on the dash ie repair them, rather than buy a new whole dash???
Thanks in advance for any help...

of course it is. They can be removed from the rear side of the instrument panel.
Get the workshop manual, you `ll find that ie in the downloads thread on top of the P750 forum.

Thank you - I have actually tracked down a dash - but as it is quite expensive, I think I will wait and see what actually does and doesn't work on the dash....

If you can get one of those old Bic pens that has an erasor, you can clean the contacts of the circuit board for the lights. You can get the contacts really nice and shiney, which may bring some of the bulbs back to life. Here is the backside of my dash a few years ago where the bottom left bulb socket is partially cleaned and the bottom right has not been touched...
