If you know how to solder, you can always shove an LED in there You can always get an LED bulb to put in there from ledautomotive.com .. or all those other LED sellers around this site .. there's a buuuuuunch of em haha

Here's the guide I used. It's pretty much the same thing but it shows the bulb holder and such.

I'm not sure of the proper bulb size name, but I think it's a #74. I bought this bulb to replace the OEM one from superbrightleds. If you don't want a LED bulb, local autopart stores should sell the regular bulb for pretty cheap or TASauto.com.

From my experience, it was a PITA trying to squeeze in and twist the bulb out.

Yes, its a #74
and getting it out is easy, putting it back in is a pain in the ***.

hahaha,
its a tight space and you gotta angle it down to get it in and under then angle it back up to get it into the socket, and then try to line it up.

God it took me 10 minutes lmfao.

The bulb worked fine for me. It was a tight squeeze but there were no issues with the bulb overall. All the LEDs I've bought from SuperBrightLEDs have been working fine for me.
