LCD Back light for stereo 99 GA. Where to buy?
I am looking to see if anyone can tell me where I could order the backlight for the lcd display on a 99 GA? Asked multiple dealers for a $2.00 lamp and all want to sell me a $400.00 plus radio. The only thing WRONG with this 10 year old stereo is that you can't see the time or station. The local radio repair shops have bluntly told me they will NOT sell me the part but would be more than happy to install a lightbulb for $125.00. I am a certified automotive technician and have the lamp out, I certainly am not paying $125.00 for effectively a light bulb. Any help is greatly appriciated.

I would use a couple of white LEDs from like Radio Shack. It would be much more reliable than the incandescent lamp that is currently used in the radio. If you do use the LEDs make sure to buy 1k dropping resistors other wise the led will burn out.
