bulb replacement

[tabipapa]

Does anyone know where I can find some bulbs to replace the burnt ones
in the heater control modules? Subaru wants $10 a piece. That would
be $30 total. Doesn't seem worth it. I tried a salvage yard but the
ones I found were also burnt. Please let me know.

NAPA, Autozone, Schucks, etc., et al.

Where do you live, somebody may have better information for you.

Replacements will probably be clear. Getting the green cover off the old
bulbs tends not to go so well. You can always color the new bulbs with
magic marker or something.

In the past, I've read of a Radio Shack bulb that can be used as a
replacement. Try a SEARCH for that at www.ultimatesubaru.org.
Or an online dealer should have them - www.subarugenuineparts.com

Thanks for the info Carl. I did a search earlier today that resulted
in the same thing you said. The RS P/N is 272-1092 and they work just
fine. All that was needed was a little work to replace the bulbs in
the socket. Thanks again.
