Changing the bulb behind the rear defroster switch

cuz the hazard works just fine and all, but for my defroster, I feel like changing that to red just so it matched the hazard, and the rest will be green, so hopefully you can see it or imagine it from my viewpoint


btw their 5% off only saves me .69 cents on a $15 order -_- lol

heres what I came up with...







And this just came out after I pried both ends up. Any details on what bulb this is exactly is appreciated. By that, I mean where can I find it on superbrightleds

okay, that brown one i have pics of, superbrightleds has NOTHING of that sort.. I had live support... ;) so go through the dealer for that one.... For some reason it used to work, but it didnt work when I tried it just now.. I heard a click, but nothing else.... I'll let you know how much it costs at the dealership.. Never hurts to replace that while everything is already out imo

Yeah I dont think they sell those at other stores, you can solder on an led if you have the skills to do so

Yea that brown superbrightleds doesn't carry, but the other one like I stated above is 3mm size bulb. The little bulb lights up the square area when you press in the button. You can still buy them at acura btw but I think it cost me $3 each. I got couple spares just incase.. Both defroster and hazzard and the 94-97 oem fog button has that brown bulb.

the hazard does NOT have that little brown thing. Just the defroster.... but thats just me, maybe its different for you?

I got it from the dealer for $2 and some change. I never used it though. It's in my toolbox. I got impatient waiting for it to arrive, and after trying 20 different bulbs out of old Accords from the junkyard, I found one that actually works. Still working to this day.

There are always lots of those Accords and it takes 2 seconds to pop the bulb out of them.
