Bud,

The fuel warning lights were originally 2.5 volts and they had a 
resistor in the for of wrapped nichrome wire wound around the outside of 
the socket.  I added an additional resistor on mine to cut down the 
brightness of the light, which I found a pain at night.  I don't see any 
reason that the resistance winding couldn't be bypassed and a 12 volt 
bulb used in place of the 2.5  volt bulb.  The 2.5 volt bulbs are a bit 
hard to find, although Moss or Abingdon should carry them as they are 
available, they just have to be special ordered.

Good luck,
Dave
