Homelink light

I am not sure if anyone knows where to get those little bulbs with the black base, two of my three homelink lights are out. They do not appear to be LED but rather a tiny halogen with a blue cap on it. Buying a new homelink is last restort as Acura quoted me $340. I do have a pencil solder and am willing to even solder one of these black bases w/a light but I cannot find those anywhere either. Pics below for reference, they are big images as I wanted to keep the tiny circuit writing legible. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.

You will have to do some soldering .. as you probably won't find these exact replacements...

i would remove one of the mini LEDs from one of these VLED bulbs and solder it into place either in parallel with a burnt out bulb, or after removing one of those burnt out bulbs. Should work just fine as LEDs draw low current

Just ordered a used console on ebay, exterior seems beat but I figured I can just swap the internal circuit board. I hope none of the lights are burnt out on this thing.
