Default ?? Radio Lights burnt out ??

Anyone have this problem? The lights for the #1 & #4 presets of the radio have burned out. Anyone know how to change the light bulbs. Everything is functional with the buttons except the illuminating lights behind them. :confused:

The "2" and "4" buttons on my cd player are burned out...

Looking for online instructions for disassembling radio and soldering new bulbs in there...

Taking apart the radio and replacing the bulbs is easy. Finding the correct bulb is not.

LS1RAT,

Have you done this? Any help regarding size, voltage and amperage of the LED's would be great.

Thanks

I did the AC head unit. Now I have to do the radio. I'm gonna use bulbs, not LED's.
