Hi Reddevil,Regarding the electro-luminescant dash, as you later noted, there are no bulbs. There is a power supply located under the drivers side kick panal (The plastic under the dash and ahead of your driver's side door opening} up high.It's about 6 inches long, 1 1/2 inch wide and a bit over an inch thick. It takes 12 volts DC and if I understand right, creates a very high frequncy AC that causes the special paint of the dash and instruments to glow. It looks real nice the first time you see ti at nice. Like Star Wars way before Star Wars. This is one feature I love about this era's Chryslers.
I'm glad to see someone herer with a 62 Chrysler big body! I have quite a few. (5 Newports and one 300, all 1962. I also have a lot of parts in varying degrees of condition from NOS, to "why havn't I trown this away yet?". I am presently overseas, but plan on getting back to the States sometime this summer. ANy advice on the 62's I'll be glad to help with what I know.
Dan from Nevada

My main dash lights are out, though I get signal indicators, brights indicator and my gauges work. where is the bulb/ or bulbs for the main lighting display? From behind I don't see it but perhaps I'll need to dismantle the dash further, maybe it's internal?
