98 Civic CX HB Rear Defrost Bulb
So I just replaced my climate control bulbs and guage cluster bulbs with blue incandescents. I should have pulled the cluster before hand to see how many bulbs I needed though, because everyone said that you need 1 #194 but my cluster (from a 96-00 EX) needs two.
So now I was going to order another #194 from autolumination and shipping is going to be $3.50 for one bulb. So I figured while Im at it I might as well get some more bulbs and decided to change out the rear defrost switch. Problem is I cant find what size bulbs I need anywhere on the net. Can anyone help me out and let me know what size these are?
Also, anyone have recomendations on what other bulbs I could change out, since I might as well get the most out of the shipping charge as I can?

Thanks for the link 96 coupe. And Ive already swapped out the dome light with an led #194 that I happened to have on hand.
Thanks motegicivic, I was worried about that when I couldnt find out what kind of bulb it was. Oh well, might have to just live with it not being blue like the rest of my lights.

A trick that seemed to work for me was to cut a little square of aluminum foil and put it against the back of the case cutting slit for the bulb to fit through and a hole for the mounting screw helps disperse the LED light better. I got the brightest #194 bulb from superbrightleds.com and i can see EVERYTHING in my car at night haha
