I have finished mine electronically - it is working.
yesterday I made the lights work - had to sacrifice most of the originall lamps, they were welded with the rust, I was able to extract just one and it was working; a pity!
But I bought 250mA ones - they work just fine and as bright as the one that is (if it is the original) 450mA.

Can't bring myself to finish the dial assembly... we are having my old folks over and so that of course takes time.
