Cruise control button lights died
So a few nights ago as I was driving the lights behind the cruise control button didn't come on. I pressed the button a few more times, nada. The cruise control still works; it seems as though the tiny light bulbs behind the button went out.
I can understand one bulb going out, but both? Before I look for replacements, has anyone had this happen to them before?
Hopefully it's just the bulbs and not a larger symptom, as everything else is working flawlessly. Also, I researched the bulbs and they're part #s 35850-S5A-A01 and 35851-S5A-A01, both 14V 60MA. Is there another source, like Radio Shack, I can get these besides Honda?
Lastly, as I hadn't really paid attention while it worked: are both the cruise button lights green?

If anyone cares, I was able to find the solution to replace the bulb here:

The bulb costs about $5.50 at any Honda dealer, and usually has to be special ordered and received next day.
Just be real careful what you're doing.
Funny that the same button on my '90 Accord is still glowing brightly.
