Trying to track down gauge cluster bulbs for my '97 ex
I'm looking for the little bulbs that illuminate the gauge cluster; not the check engine, brake, oil pressure, etc lights. The part number for what I need is 37238-SD2-A00
I called the dealer and they only sell the bulbs with the bases, which cost $12 a piece and they would need to order them. Advanced, pep boys, and auto zone don't sell them so far as I could tell.
Any idea on where I could order them? Online would work, but I would need to know what specs like wattage and base I need.
Thanks!

ok i'm finding contradicting information. one place says #24, another #74. i'm pretty sure it's one of those two though. maybe take in with you a stock bulb and compare it to each.

try just getting led lights. they are brighter and you can get anycolor you like. i think they are also cheaper too.
superbrightleds.com- they sell leds that will fit pretty much anything

I've heard regular LED's arent dimmable, is that true? Or when you try to dim them they pulse funny. I adjust the brightness of the cluster fairly frequently so it's pretty important for me.

Yea, there are two different types in there...one type provides the main illumination to the guages and the others light up the front needle area.
