So my map light doesnt have a bulb in it, so I cannot use that as a reference. And when I go to any Auto Zone, Napa, Strauss, they tell me its bulb # 105. But that bulb is WAY too big for the map light, anyone know the right bulb number for it?

None of us do that stuff, but it was just made up one night when I turned it on.

Yeah, I bought a 105 also from Napa, but like I said it was huge, I actually used it for the under hood light.. lol

I've been looking online for the bulb, on average the bulb costs 1.50 and shipping is 8.50 lol

I've seen that Sylvania list but it has a few errors.

Autozone shows the bulb listed. Some garages and hardware stores carry the small bulbs also.

I'm in, but I need to recharge my a/c, its been sitting for two years.

Every time somebody looks at my interior the first thing they see is the map light 'Whats that!' Then they start playing with it like a retarded cat would with tassels.

I think I'm gonna put a label on the right hand side of the light that says 'Its a damn map light do not touch!'

From the dead you rise. I wanted to add a bit of relevant information to this. Sylvania's site states that the trunk and under hood bulb is a 89. I could not find a single parts store that carried this bulb. But I did find that the sylvania 93 bulb was the same wattage and size.
