[Shotimes] 92 Clock Light

[Carl Prochilo]

I admit I didn't look very hard when I needed to do this, but those bulbs in
fact are commononly used in this type of application.  In fact, my Alfa 164
dash even uses this style.  On our SHOs, the Gen 2 foglamp switch uses a
similar one too.  I suspect a good specialty electronics store will have
these.

Worse comes to worst you can go to Radio Shack and just buy an 18V bulb and
replace the one in the base.  The wire leads are just wrapped around the
base.
