Has anybody taken apart 1 of those little halogen lites in the speedo assembly? 200 1993

There are two "twist-in" halogen lite bulbs in the top portion of the speedometer/gas gauge assembly. If you've ever taken one out and examined it, you'll notice that it's awful tempting to try and remove a blown halogen bulb and re-using the plastic "twist-in" base after you've inserted another replacement bulb. Why? Because the stealership wants $15 a piece and the local parts stores have a halogen bulb that has the little prongs sticking out. Looks VERY similar.

Anyone know about this?
