    I know I read where someone here listed a bulb replacement that is brighter than the factory dash lights. I've searched the different forums and can't find it. Can anyone help?:confused:

    The bulb to look for is the Sylvania type 2825/w5w. An equivalent bulb is also available from NAPA, part #17177.

    Thanks MapleMav:clap: I remembered seeing this in a forum but couldn't find it. I've got some bulbs out so I thought I'd brighten it up a little.

    These bulbs really do make a difference. It's definitely worth doing for the little bit of money it costs. (y)
