VTII Commodore Olympic Edition, saving up for a V8
Hi, I was just wanting to ask, what are the name of the globes that are used in the climate control of a VT Commodore (Manual climate control), as mine have blown and I would like to get the. replaced.
Picture is of the genuine factory bulb.

Thank you

I think it's a wedge bulb but you'll need to pull it out of the base to confirm.

T5 wedge

Edit I am now doubting this. Maybe it’s a t4?

47734 narva does a clear replacement. The green sleeve ones I haven’t seen around new. I raid working ones from cars I am going to scrap to keep a stash.

T5. Here's a nifty guide to changing the bulbs that I made for someone one of the 207 other times this question has been asked here:

Good work.

Our Calais has one bulb out so this is most useful.

I've got a good half dozen out. They've been out since I bought my car two years ago. I finally figured I should put this knowledge to use this morning and ordered some new bulbs. Gonna try out some pink and blue ones, see how they look.
