Default Speedo/Tach illumination

I recently went to reset my OXS light and bumped the lights for illuminating the speedometer. Th filimant broke and now I only have a half illuminated dash. Anyone know where I can get replacement bulbs? I live in SW Idaho so, as you can imagine, a junkyard is pretty much out of the question.

I had to do this for my speedo... it was a HUGE RAGING BITCH to do. you have to pull off the front fascia on the dash, then pop off the cluster cover. it took me HOURS to do all this because the damned thing melted and if you're not careful you can drop **** deep down inside the dash and you have to take out the actual instrument cluster to get it out. anyway, if you get a sylvania bulb, it's 904 I believe. it doesn't list it in the sylvania catalogue as being the right bulb. you can get it anywhere, probably even fred meyers. I got it at schuck's, you can get it at thrifty, GI Joes.. any auto parts store really.
