Sun Visor Bulbs

Anybody know the name/part number of the tiny little bulbs in the sun visor lights?

I want to get some super white and/or LED ones to replace them.

Thanks in advance!

Bump for an old post, but a good question that remains unanswered.

Not me, at least.
I've tried because I've had the switch go bad on three of them over the last 10 years,
and I've not been able to take them apart and get them back together successfully.
New visors are about $80, too.

Looks like a 12V 1.2W bulb. You'd have to pull one to see what kind of base it has. #6 here:

There is a little 12 1.2 watt bulb, its a very slim wedge bulb. Two for each visor and you pop the little translucent covers off #5 , then the bulb goes in on the sides behind it towards the glass mirror. This is for gen 1 R50 R53 models only, R52 Convertible don't have them. Does not show a part for gen 2



Wedge Bulb (1.2 Watt 12V) Part # 63217167000
