Hoping someone might know a source for the incandescent bulbs on the
A/C control backlight. The size is approximately T-1 1/4 and it's a
wire terminal mount. The plastic pcb holder/mount the bulb fits into
can be reused.

Thanks.

Your local dealer is the best bet. They can definitely get the
bulbs/parts. When you order from the dealer, the part includes the
plastic holder/base, so you just pop the old assemblys out and replace
with new ones.

These bulbs are not cheap. I had to replace 2 of mine and paid about
5 bucks per bulb.

I have the automatic climate control - so if you need the Nissan part
number for those bulbs let me know. I do not know if the manual
control uses the same bulb, but based on your description, it is of the
same type.

Thanks Nirav.

Yes, my local Nissan dealer wants $8.29 each and I need all 4. Chicago
Miniature has a similar bulb at $.55, but minimum qty is 1000.

I'll keep searching. I can't justify ~$30 for 4 bulbs. I'll do the
LED mod before that.

Have you tried courtesy nissan?

And you'll spend how much time and money doing that?

Not trying to be a REAL SA but just seems odd to me to go to THIS much
trouble over $30 for some bulbs that will last 10+ years..

It appears the lamp assy is known as neo-wedge. I've found a few
mfg's, JKL, Chicago Miniature, but no exact size matches.

Bulb #7219 is a close match and the price is right.... $0.35 ea.

Tried Radio Shack a while back, no luck.

Courtesy Nissan quoted $2.91 ea, much better.
