I've figured out what to use for bulbs - the rest of the instrument
lights have replaceable bulbs, and those bulbs are fastened into little
plastic holders that twist into the back of the instrument needing
the light. The actual bulbs appear to be the same! You can get some
extra plastic mounted bulbs and take them out of the plastic part!
All of the plastic mounted bulb holders are marked 12/1.2 on the bottom
except the one that illuminates the clock - and it's marked 12/2.0 -
and also will have a colored holder; I've seen both white and olive green
on this - the 1.2w lights have black holders.
Now, since that one's solved - has anyone figured out how to put
my @&$%# computer/reset switch back together so it works? After I
perform the above discussed bulbadectomy, that is :-)
