Mounts that point the bulb at the dial should be OK without any adjustment. The metal base of the LED lamps is the same as the 47 bulbs so that exchanging them is easy.</span><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Lucida Fax","serif"'>At only 69 cents each and simple 1st class postage for shipping, this was cheap and easy FUN!</span><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Lucida Fax","serif"'>Bob AG5X</span><o:p></o:p></p></div></div></body></html>
