The console illumination in my RL has gone dark. The tiny green lights within specific selection buttons remain illuminated, but the backlight of the buttons now is dark.

At night, the driver can't see the lettering on the buttons because the illumination is shot.

Can you please tell me what types of bulbs are needed for the replacement, where I might find them and how they can be replaced.

In the near future, I expect to have the console pulled so some audio equipment an be added. I'd like to get the replacement parts so I can have both fixed at the same time.

Thanks.
