Hello

Yesterday i opened and changed the burned bulb of the transmission shift.
i was surprissed to find a blue cover on the old bulb that was so dry that i couldn't take it out without tearing it apart to put on the new bulb.

in the forum i found data only for 4 gen max and it's different light (mine is 5th).

someone knows the cataloge number for blue bulb ?

sorry if it's minor thing but it's importaint for me

Thanks in advaned

Do you have a pic of the bulb?

The bulb is stanley 158 but it's coming transperent

That bulb would have been transparent when it was new. They turn silver with age.

You can put it in without the sleeve or source a new sleeve at the dealer.

You might be able to find a blue 158 from other sources online. Maybe an LED.

I've seen tint covers you can put on bulbs but I don't know anything about them.

 

thank's will try to get one

 

If there's a U-Pullit style yard near you that's a great place to get oddball parts like this.
You can break apart whatever you need to get the part.

That's usually my first thought when I need a part like this.

 

Hi

Very good idea, i allready located a yard with 2 max that i need to go and see what i can take, beside the blue bulb i am looking to change a part of the dash board (european model) that is a liitel broken, as shown in the picture (top cell)
didn't see american model with this cell.

American models don't have shift lights. I know the dash lights in my American car do have those small bulbs with the blue cover preinstalled from the factory which keeps the dash lighting looking cool white instead of warm white you normally see. I think there are about $1-2 each from the dealer.

You can probably find an LED bulb with that part number but then the shift light would be really bright.
