First why are both out?..... that's probably an indication of another issue.
... Do the front and rear signal lights work?
... If they do then I would look at wiring to the indicators.
....What do you mean by "transformers" ?
Looks like a 12v pin base bulb (or 14v) with a resistor to dim it. I'd check Radio Shack.
As Greg said Radio Shack
So none of the Speedster makers will have these parts for sale?
Those didn't come with your CMC kit so they could be from anything. I used ones from an old '68 MGB.

I'd try Advance Auto or O'Reilly's --- or a hot rod place. These would work.

I used VDO setups with incandescent bulbs on my CMC. It looks like the original light you had was an LED setup.
Thanks again.
To clarify, you think these came with the VDO gauge kit/set?
Go to Auto Zone Advance Auto or Radio Shack for LED's...... if you want to install something that has a smaller diameter than what you have now you can use a small rubber grommet, buff out a small aluminum or stainless washer or use a stainless screw dress ring that is used on older car interiors ......lots of options to choose from.
Hi Alan
Thanks for your reply
The front and rear signal lights do work.
This is what I need to replace. I need 2 of these. The wiring is ready.
Any idea where I can get these?
I can't tell the scale from the size of your pic, but that looks like maybe a 10mm LED with a voltage drop resistor that's broken off one of the legs. Have you tried soldering the leg back on?
Unless the metal parts inside the LED bulb itself look brown or burned, it should still be good.
But if it is bad, any type of 12V (or higher) rated bulb will work. Just make sure you get something that is the correct diameter for the hole in your dash.
For example, I used jewel lamp indicators designed for guitar amps to make a custom gauge cluster for my Karmann Ghia.
