Some suggested solid state replacements. The problem there is a straight

someone who really knew what they were doing to pull it off.

They're actually current rather than voltage driven.

A 1000 ohm resistor in series with a standard LED will be fine for this
app.

Hey fellows,
Thanks for reply's . The lamp is soldered in because I
unsoldered it and took it out. Bob, I think your right, it is a grain
of wheat type lamp less the leads. Radio shack didn't have anything.
i will try those places that were suggested. Once more thanks for the
help!!
