thanks again guys for the info

i am actually going to backlight a tacho in the LHS hole of the 
cluster, hence the reason for wanting to wire extra lights in parallel 
with those on the RHS. So seeing as you guys are approx. 
doubling the wattage of the single existing globes, I wont be risking 
any damage adding extra standard wattage globes????
