LCD in radio backbulb is burnt out, where to find replacement?

[pOrk]

Took the radio apart and found the bulb thing, its got a round plastic socket that screws into the back of the electronic board. Radioshack has nothing

Napa had the bulbs for the older Ford radios.

Will try Napa, found one on ebay for a rediculous price:

Dope at Napa said no listing, and he wasn't real anxious to look for the bulb.

that looks like the same bulb that goes in the head light switch on the c/k style trucks, and GM didn't even have a listing for it, but I do have a link to a site on my home computer where you can buy an LED replacement.

The bulbs are all the same, I cant find a part number anywhere but these buls are used in 100's of auto applications

would any of these work?

[fly5150]

also reminds me of the gauge cluster bulbs on GM trucks. Too bad I used to have a bunch of them. Napa does sell them, cant remember the number though

call united radio

When the one burnt out in my GM stereo, I didn't want to pay the Hi $$ for a replacement either. So I soldered some high intensity white LEDs in it's place. Just make sure they are facing the back of the LCD display.

[BoosTT]

Dealerships can get them. I got honda ones before.

[Gregor]

We have them where I work part time.

[Gregor]

Infact I think that is a 194 bulb.

[badass88gt]

I was just going to say, looks like a 194, I have a ton in my tool box.

[LIL EVO]

Might be easier to unsolder the bulb itself and stick a new one in there.

[Gregor]

Bring it in to my store and I am sure I can match it.

[pOrk]

I am having a hell of a time finding the part number, thats one of the reasons I'm struggling to find one. That looks very similar to what I need Holeshot, it might work?
