Default Back light bulbs for switches on my 2001...where can I get some?
I need to find some neo base bulbs for my switches....the ones for the rear wiper and defrost switches on my center dash panel.

Where can I get some? Auto part stores don't seem to carry them.

It won't make a difference if you don't have the LED one, except for maybe it getting too hot in the area of the switch. ( the housing that provides electricity might not be compatible though)

if I can't find the bulb...I will try the dealer...but I am scared they will say that you need to buy a whole new switch.
