Climate Control Bulbs for Red/Blue Arrow & Auto

I searched the forums and found this:
http://www.acura-cl.com/forums/showthread.php?t=697071

Specifically, I'm having the exact same problems as him here.



I searched and didn't find an answer for this, but how many bulbs do I need to buy to fix the red,blue, and auto buttons being out? Is it just 1 bulb for all 3 buttons, or does each button get it's own bulb?

Since I have to replace them anyway, I should just replace them all, so how many do I need for all buttons around the screen.

I searched and was read this was the part number: 39054-SEP-A01

It's been bugging the hell out of me since I noticed it last night. I tried smacking the hell out of the area to get it relit, but didn't work. My Setup/Info didn't light up before, so I just kept hitting the button hard and it came back on. These bulbs suck.

There are many bulbs out on my steering wheel, like the "Mode" and 2 for the phone, but don't want to mess with them.

3G Garage, Item G-100 should have all the info you need, even though it deals with replacing the bulbs with LEDs.

That depends.......How do you feel about tearing the dash apart again. For sure another bulb will fail eventially.

I also replaced the same 2 bulbs steering wheel bulbs, they are easy to replace just loosen the 2 torx screw on the steering wheel holding the air bag in. You don't have to remove or disconnect the airbag just move it out of the way.

instead of spending so much $ for bulbs at dealer, radioshack has the exact same bulbs for $1.99 for a pack of 2 bulbs. i've already changed some of mine, saves me a lot of $

It seems that the bulbs that are used are like Xmas tree lights cheap. Does anyone have a sight to order LED versions of these bulbs?
