Sunvisor

These are the bulbs that illuminate when the sunvisor is flipped down, on both driver & passenger sides.  Each visor has 2 bulbs, one on each side. 

They are very small, and the real estate to get to them is precious small.  But pliers do the trick nicely, if you don't crush or scratch them.  I had a very difficult time finding LED versions of these.
