Default Question: 87 Saleen Hazard Switch Backlight: Replacable bulb?

I recently noticed that at night in my 87 Saleen, that the backlighting of the hazard switch no longer illuminates. The rear defrost lights up, but the hazard does not.

Anyone have experience on how to fix this problem? On an internet search, there was one post that stated there was a tiny bulb that could be replaced. I went to the local Ford dealer to ask and they could not find a part for that.

Thanks.

Check your post on the other site. I responded there before I saw it here

Default I found these

These bulbs are difficult to find. Went to the electronics store and the Ford dealer. No one knew where you could find this long discontinued item.

This is what I went with:

NEOx-x: NEOx LED Instrument bulb | $ 1.29 |
NEO4-G: 4mm NEO4-x Green

I ordered from this site: http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-b...nstrument.html

Just installed today- works perfect. In fact, it's so MUCH BRIGHTER than stock bulbs. You can see it illuminate during bright daylight. Glad that I bought for the Defrost too.

Too bad, the extra bulb I bought for the Headlight back illumination isn't so straight forward. I left that alone.
