________________________________________________
Anybody have a GM part# or suggestion on where I can find this bulb? I
checked a former Delco radio repair shop that still has parts and they
didnt` find anything but they also couldn`t find a part# either.
All the other interior/dash bulbs are easy to find at parts stores or
even WalMart but this tiny one isn`t.
it`s the tiny 2182 bulb that is the `stereo indicator` for the U79
Delco stereo radios used in early C3s. Take the radio out, take the
nose piece off and it`s a tiny push in/twist bulb (bayonet) that
lights up on a stereo FM station. The trade name is or was 2182. It`s
12V.

Take your pick.
It took me 30 seconds tops using Google to find these 5 companies.

Thank you.
But what`s this...

....started out helpful enough but then we get to the gratuitous
attitude. Oh gee now we have a google elitist bragging on an ability
to paste 4 digits into a window and click the search button. Well
those mass marketed 2182 solder-in bulbs you`re so keen on are not the
bayonet style 2182s GM or Delco used that I need. I guess the driving
need to cop a `tude and brag on your googling talents blinded you to
stopping and considering the application.
