Default Where do I get these HVAC & radio lights?

All three backlights for my recirc, AC and non recirc are blown. Where can I get these little bulbs (which I need to solder in and out). Same question for the radio ones.

The HVAC lights are 0.122" in diameter, 0.28" long from the top of the bulb to the base of the board (probably .25" for the actual bulb). these look to be about T1/7219 bulb?

The radio ones are 0.155" in diameter and about 0.35 to the base of the board, probably about .32 of the actual bulb. This is a T-1 3/4 bulb??

They measure about 10-11V across them, so I think they are 12V. All need to be soldered. I tried to measure the current draw to see if they match the radio shack one, but I think my ammeter crapped out on me because now it won't even measure voltage.

Thanks guys,
Andrew





These are the only ones I was able to find at "the shack".

Send a PM to 04BlackSilverado he was selling controls that he installed blue LED's in. He can probably tell you where to get bulbs or led's. This post has some pictures in it https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...highlight=leds

Hey..yes they should work pretty good...depends just on the voltage but it seems like you got that covered..

Id just start the swithc over and run White LED with resistors..get that piece done and its the hardest board to wire...rest is a cake walk..

All good guys. Used the ones in the radio shack link for both the HVAC and the radio lights and it came out perfectly. Might have to give LED's a shot once I figure out what spread angles have worked best for most people.
