HVAC climate control bulbs any aftermarket ones?

[Harry Paratestes]

So oem bulbs are part number 5135537AA and are about $18 a piece which is crazy. Most of mine are bad and i really don't want to spend that for tiny bulbs. Anyone know of an aftermarket bulb that works and isnt almost $20 each? Ive searched for aftermarket ones with no success...Thank you

I would take one to a local auto parts counter, see if they can match it. I bet they have box of them on the shelf.

Try searching places such as Amazon. A very quick search showed these. No idea if they're the right ones for your truck.

Ya i saw those but i dont really care for the brigntness of led and not sure if they're dimable as most arent. I saw the same ones on ebay and asked the seller last night. Waiting for a reply.

Edit - seller got back to me and they dont dim so they'll be brighter than all hell at all times which is annoying
