Hi- I am going to replace the broken gear in my speedometer/odometer- according to the bay 13 repair site, I should replace the bulbs while the cluster is out. They indicate 4 bulbs #942571, does anyone know how many#977709 and #966326 I will need, and if I can purchase these light bulbs at Advance or Autozone? -Brett

    I picked up 5 of each at my local dealer and found that I had enough to replace all bulbs that were out on the 96 850GLT. I was not able to get the bulbs from any of my local parts stores. If all your bulbs are out I would get at least ten of the smaller (warning light) bulbs. Some of my bulbs started working after they were tightened. Also, I found that you can test the bulbs while installed with a continuity meter as they have two small openings on the back of the bulb case that you can make contact with. The instruction on Bay 13 for cluster removal are very good and if you take your time you should not have any problems.

    Good Luck

    Oliver

      thanks for the reply- I was dreading this job, I have had the new gear for a couple of months, but everything went great and now works perfectly.
