What size dash bulbs in FD?

Hey everybody,
Finally got my dash out to replace the bulbs. Ran to autozone and o'reilly's and neither had the bulbs for the guage cluster. Does anyone know the size and/or number at one of these places? Or does anyone know where else I could possibly get them? Thanks
Jeff

sick,

i have been looking around the garage. I have the bulbs around here somewhere.
I also had the same problem like you in finding the correct bulbs. The larger ones I found at pep boys. The guy had to get some of the "dealer only" stock that are found only in "back"...whatever that means. Suffice it to say, that they are not found routinely off the rack.

The smaller bulbs we could not find a replacement at all. Goto pep boys and see if they can look at the stock that they normally sell to dealers. Otherwise you are probably better off heading to Mazda.

I'll try to look around the garage again tomorrow night.

great , time to give mazda a call and pay 10 bucks for 2 bulbs. Yeah they didn't even carry any bulbs small enough to be considered close enough for government work at autozone.

Sylvania 2825 for the larger bulbs and 2723 for the smaller. These are brighter than stock , but they fit.

I just put in the nr white face gauges and ended up replacing the bulbs over to red to give it a sweet nightglow. Anyhow the bulb sizes in the gauge cluster are 194 (larger) and 74 (smaller). Check out www.autolumination.com for bulbs. If I remember right they are somewhere around 99 cents a piece. Can’t beat that with a stick.
