Save those old bulbs for the next time a radio light goes out! The radio shack bulbs ARE a perfect fit, they just don't come with the quarter-turn black plastic base.

On the interior switches the bulb leads are just wrapped around the base - easy to remove and replace with the aid of a small implement such as an Exacto knife. The radio bulbs are different and not so easy as the bulb leads are melted into the plastic base. Some careful work with the Exacto knife frees the leads allowing the bulb to be replaced by the much cheaper bulb from Radio Shack PN 2721092.

If you don't want to mess with swapping the little bulbs from their bases, but want an option other than the Volvo stealership, you can try your local Honda stealership, according to other online sources. They are Honda PN 35505-S84-N01 "BULB, NEO-WEDGE (T3)".

Thanks for sharing!
