CCU Bulbs

[JEREMYC]

Anyone know where I can get those little bulbs that emit light to the CCU through the fiber optic like tubes? They are very small bulbs. There is a spider that one plugs into behind the CCU unit. I need 2 or 3 bulbs and I did not see them in Phil's catalogue. A brief search turned up a sylvania 2721 bulb but it was for a 240D. Are they the same? Thanks!

The 74's are what you need.

However, I note that they are now missing the clear 74 incandescent.

I did get a few of the LED's. Some fit.......some don't.

They're listed as the auto trans bulb I think, but, as you know, there are quite a few of them behind the dash. The same bulb is used in a number of other Europeans cars, many auto parts stores on either coast have them in stock.

In Special Order parts order number 228875094 Frosted 1.2 watt bulb $1.20 EACH

Put the wrong bulb in there, and it'll melt the sockets. You'll never know til it burns out, and you try to replace the bulb. Guess how I know that one..

I got mine from the stealership. I don't think they were much more than $1/piece so not outrageous.
