Need a few instrument lights - one 2 watt white base, four 1.2 watt black base.
These are NOT the same base size bulb as used in the 5000/100/200
instrument cluster.
I had an earlier cluster and for a few happy moments, I actually thought I
had the parts I needed . . .
The correct bulbs have a thinner bulb carrier shoulder (smaller O.D.) where
they fit through the PC board.
I'm wondering if FLAPS has these - Autozone lists them online at $2.29,
some other online sources list them at 69 cents - this is for the white
base 2 watt bulb.
Haven't found the 1.2 watt black base bulb yet - the online pix is of the
earlier, wide-shoulder carrier for the bulb.
Nearest dealer is far, far away, and I'd rather go aftermarket anyway -
these are Sylvania/Osram bulbs, so I see no reason to pay $6.49 list for
them (yes, really!) at the stealership.
Best Regards,
Mike Arman
