A/C elec. control panel
I was wondering... are all the buttons on your electonic A/C control panel supposed to light up at night ?? I have 2 buttons that do not. Is this wrong ?

If you know how to use a soldering iron only, this bulb will work.

You will need to trim the plastic coating from the base and unsolder its existing wire extensions, but its the correct voltage and wattage bulb for the AC Panel and the radio lamps too. The bulbs will burn out with old age. I suggest that if you do this, replace them all at the same time. If you are not sure of how to solder, take the head unit and the lamps to an electronics repair person or TV repair place...wherever it can be done for you. I replaced all of mine with this same part and the illumination brightness comes out perfect. As stated, some people are using the LED's which look nice, but that involves adding a resistor in the circuit for each lamp.
