Default LED bulb for visor light

Picked up two new visors on craigslist, didn't come with instructions. Can anyone tell me which bulb I need for these?

Those white squares are leds, you don't need any bulbs.

Thanks. I asked because after installing the visors the lights weren’t turning on. But after I fiddled around with the little button that releases when you open the cover and pressing it in and out a bunch of times they would flicker and stay on sometimes. Any other special steps to take for LED’s to make them work properly?

Maybe a little electrical contact cleaner?

Sounds like a bad contact. Is this happening to both of them? Is it possible to remove the surrounding bezel to get to the little switch and LEDs connections to verify power with a multimeter?
