Default Radio bulb

What bulb does the radio take to light up the face?

David, I went to superbrightleds.com and entered the year/make/model. Then selected interior. Their web site is very informative. It listed an 1895 for the bulb in question. Good luck and keep posting pictures.

That’s what I thought I had in the other bulbs but it won’t fit

Shop manual page 11-79 lists all the required bulbs.

Given that your radio has been fully gutted and updated with modern internals, is it possible the bulb socket is now different than it would have been in stock form?

Dang, I didn’t know it was gutted and updated. That would have helped to know. Maybe contact the people that did conversion?

It says what bulb in my owners manual, but SPECMO has them.
