Default MES bulb repair

I need a 12 - 14v MES dimple bulb. Very common in the US, but unheard
of here (unless you know better?), and postage is a killer.

I have a blown bulb, and can probably get the glass out of the base, but
can I cut the base of the glass? Thinking if I could cut the glass, I
could insert a grain of wheat bulb, which will do the job, but how to
cut the glass?


Squeeze with pliers.
