The differential light just went in my car.  The DIFF and the engagement
arrow still light up but the actual picture of the drive train burned
out.  Is this a regular replacement bulb or is it  soldered in one like
the infamous temperature readout in the center of the dash (between the
tac and speedo). that seems to burn out in almost every car.

On my cars they are soldered in if I recall correctly, having last fixed
mine a couple of years ago.  You can use the Radio Shack 55 mA incandescents
that we use for the heater switches.  Use an iron that isn't so hot that it
smokes the solder and the traces probably won't lift.
