    Quite a few of the small light bulbs the illuminate the dashboard at night are out. Anyone know the size for these, and a good source?

    The bulb on the radio dial is also out - same question here - for an Delco am-fm.

    Finally, I'm looking to replace the in-dash speaker with something that works a little better. Not looking for any bug sound system, just better speaker. Anyone done this? Suggestions??

    your owners manual should describe the type of bulbs in the dash. not sure about the radio though. May have to get into a tech manual for the radio bulb numbers. While youre in there, might as well replace everything, warning lights at all. i think youll like bulbtowns prices.
