  Wow, my first real contribution to the board.
  
  I bought a radio console with radio for my 66 Tiger recently. Upon removing the radio and doing some cleaning, I discovered that it had a burnt out bulb that illuminates the dial when power is on. So, this set off a search for a new bulb. I finally discovered that is was a 12V, 1.5W European bulb that just about nobody has.
  
  Here is a picture of the original bulb on the left and the replacement on the right –
  
  The replacement bulb is a R280 (200 hours) available from candlepowerinc.com They can only be purchased in packs of 10. The end cost is $1.50 per bulb including shipping.
  
  It was worth the wait. Here is my Motorola 113T lit up –
  
  Did you Motorola Radio owners know there was a red light in the middle of the dial when the radio was on? That was a nice surprise.
  
  If you are interested in a bulb or two, I am willing to sell five of the bulbs I have for $1.50 each + shipping.
  
  Hope this helped some of you.
