This is so petty but it BUGS me to no end. In my map light I have size 57 bulbs. They're icky dingy yellow and fairly useless. I've been hunting for a replacement for the bulbs I have, but can't find anything other than standard filament bulbs. In my search though I've discovered that the "correct" size is 293. WTF IS A 293 BULB!?! No one carries it. NO ONE. (not parts stores, at least)
Have any of you run into this, and how have you solved it? It seems RIDICULOUS to have to go to Totota to buy these small ass light bulbs. --------------------  |

Pep Boys doesn't live in the PNW, not in the Portland area, at least. I think the nearest one is like 200 miles from me. I've looked at NAPA, CSK (Schuck's around here), and Autozone, even stupid Walmart, which goes against my core beliefs. They all carry the same brand of Sylvania bulbs for that size, nothing else. I'll keep looking though... V-LEDs has a pair, but I really don't want to pay ten bucks for these bulbs, it seems silly.
