I would also check the instrument panel grounds.

European bulb manufacturers still make a decent bulb. Hella is one of the better bands. If you can't find Hellas take a trip out to your local Pick-a-Part and grab about 10-15 bulbs from older model cars. I have a baggie full of bulbs I harvested and it only cost $2.50. Just take a good look at the filaments to make sure they're still good.
Thanks

Will check them all again.
