Jim,
I presume you are talking about the 2 bushings that go on the front
of the sway bar and not the "donut" bushings correct?
Thnx so much for the info! I will be ordering some ASAP.

WOW!
what is this the facia removal week or something? I just removed
mine also and there is a safety tip! Spray WD-40 on all the bolts
and nuts that you will be even thinking about removing or looking
at. I did that except for one somehow and everything went smooth but
that one. I was very lucky and it came lose. Save yourself a
headache spray something on those bolts. Too bad the front screen
didnt come in stainless huh? Maybe TOBY can think of something???

Raphael,
I haven't looked at it personally but I know the frame itself is different
for automatic and manual transmission DeLoreans.

Mark,
you must remove the instrument cluster. there are about 6 nuts under the
dash that must be removed (they have huge washers around them except the
two
right under the column). then you have to disconnect two wiring harnesses
to
the back of the cluster as well as the speedometer cable. the cluster
will
then easily come out and finding the right bulb should be pretty
straight-forward.
when replacing the cluster, make sure all the little copper tabs for the
wiring harnesses are straight and not touching when you reassemble. if
they
get bent or touch each other that will cause problems.
the bulb might not actually be burnt out. the cluster is kinda junky and
the
socket for the bulb could just be loose. you'll have to play around to
figure it out.
