Default Bose backlighting

My Bose stereo lights seem to have gotten dimmer on one side of the radio display area. Is it possible to change bulbs or whatever they use to illuminate the display?
I know that it's no big deal but I'd like to fix it never the less.

The bulbs that I believe that are required come from Radio Shack.
#272-1154.
Bi-Pin Lamp 12 volts 50mA
You'll have to solder them in.

Thanks for the reply; I'll have to go get a few as spares just in case.
