Subject:Instrument Light Bulb Shade

Hi all.

So while fiddling with instrument cluster clock and speedo light
bulbs, I managed to mix up the small metal shade bit on each white
plastic bit that holds the bulb. I'm loath to remove those pieces from
my '88 westy. Archives aren't yielding much but I do see a comment and
image in Alistair Bells pages:

Regardless, I throw myself at the mercy of this court.

Does the small metal shade fit into the hole at top of instrument
cluster like this?

or this?

Or does it attach to the white plastic bulb holder?

Madness is in the details,

Neil.
