anyone know where to get the little bulb that lights up the cupholder? mine went out, and i wanna fix it.

 

You have a light for your cupholder??? My 03 doesn't have one at all. I know my 97 F150 XLT had one, and I could not believe that the 03 L did not.

 

My 03 doesnt have it either.

 

You mean the sliding cupholder in the dash right? I have an 03 and I think mine is lit. Sorry I can't help with the part #...

 

Go to an Autozone, or other automotive parts supply store and look in their lighting catalog. It should show the part number in there. I believe it might be a #37.

 

yeah, i'm talking about the cupholder in the dash...

i'll stop by autozone today & look for the bulb.
thanks!

 

well that sucks, i don't have one either. I didn't really notice before but now I really miss it.

 

My 01 has the light in the cup holder. It helps to see the switch for my chip at night.

 

anybody got a pic, so I know what Im missing

 

I didn't think anyone even cared about that light.


Can you pull the bulb and compare from that?

 

I like it cause if you put a bottle of water in it at night it lights up the water

By the way I am extremely Bored!!!!

Somebody post a KILLSTORY!!

 

looks cool with a bottle of mountain dew too!!!

LOL


i finally got that stupid bulb out.. it's tiny


oh, some of you may not be able to see the light because you still have the ashtray installed in the cupholder.. pull it out & turn the lights on.. you'll see it light up.

 

found the bulb for the in dash cupholder at walmart..

GE #74/BP2

just in case anyone needs one..

 

How did you get the bulb out?

I have compounded the problem by (like a dumba$$!) pulling with pliers. Now, it's broken and I still have no idea how to get the bulb out - not to mention getting a broken bulb out!

Any ideas/suggestions?

Late to the problem .... but, the way to get it out is to push a vacuum line cap over the bulb, squeeze with your fingers, pull and it comes right out. Make sure that the cap you select is a snug, not tight fit on the glass.

I have a 2000 Harley and the lamp has the numbers N H 9 listed over 3 9 8 on it. The print is so small that it took a 4" magnifying glass in front of 2.50 readers to get it, but I have been unable to cross that number to anything.

Someone here said #37. Is there anyone here that works at a parts store that can look it up?

thanks .... your neighbor, ron :-)
