What are they... like 1.2 watt bulbs in there now - I forget, but some have gone to brighter bulbs, like 2 watt or whatever. The increase in current draw isn't significant. It's been talked about before. A search should get you the correct wattages.
Exacalary - to test the speedo - use a drill that can be run in reverse... put a medium square drive screwdriver bit in it.
