OHC bulbs burned out.

Any idea what kinda bulbs it takes without taking the lil plastic thing off quite yet? I want to pick some up on way home from work to replace. I miss the extra light :P

Thanks.

If I remember right you can use a 194 type bulb, spread out the contacts on the bottom from the bulb, and quickly solder them to the brass colored ring. It's a weird base type bulb and I think it's like nothing you can get at a parts store...at least I've never seen them. I used some white LED 194 type bulbs in mine and did that.
