Anyone know were I can get the 3 bulbs that light up your instrument panel. Dealership doesn't stock them.
Also if you used a different size could you post what it was.

Well I tried some parts store (auto-zone, advance auto parts, etc) and they didn't have it. I didn't see a bulb that looks similar to it. Where have other people been getting there's dealerships i guess. Just don't feel like waiting for bulbs.
194 bulbs for the larger ones; 74 for smaller.
A lot of people switch to LED because of the brightness and the fact that they last much longer. If you find them in the right place, you can even end up paying a real decent price.

Naw I was talking about the a/c controls. But thanks for that post i can put that to use.
Ooops... I feel like an idiot. I'm pretty sure it uses 74's. However, here's an experiment of what someone did with time to spare and some LED's.
