OEM Bulbs

Where would I be able to find replacement bulbs for my headlight switch, fog light switch, and 4wd switch? I checked eBay, but the only thing that shows up is aftermarket fog lights, which definitely isn't what I'm looking for. Thanks for any help.

Are you asking about little bulbs, that might be called "wheat bulbs"? Try Radio shack of all places. I had to replace some in an old Cherokee that I had, and THAT is the place to find them, at least around here.

Those are the ones. You would think that you could pull the bulb from the black holder, but you can't. Thanks :)

Your only real option is to mod them with leds, these crappy bulbs burn out way to fast to buy new ones.

Thank you! I'm going to order a few from buggman. There's no point in pulling 10-16 year old bulbs out of a junkyard Ranger/Explorer because being that old, they're sure to be blown.
