This little thing went out a couple months ago...

Anyone got a strategy for this? :P

Replace the bulbs with LED bulbs. They are more expensive but last longer and generate little to no heat.

Part number for the bulb is in my signature.

Mine had GE 158 bulbs in it as labeled on the glass. I replaced them with Sylvania 161 bulbs that looked exactly the same and work just as well. Just to give you some options if you go to your local FLAPS... you can always pull the bulb out and match it up to the bulbs at your FLAPS.

It's easy. I'm a mechtard and it only took me half an hour. Replace BOTH at the same time if one bulb is out.
