    Anyone have an overhead console / map light burn out, and try to find a
    replacement? Or map light burnt out in our 03 Caravan. Know I can't get the
    bulb anywere except dealer. It is a PC 579. Even Daniel Stern doesn't have
    one at his website!

  2. Not even close to everything is on the site.

    There are a few different "579" bulbs. Take a close look at your bulb. Can
    the actual glass bulb be pulled out of whatever plastic socket/base may
    come out with it when it is removed from the map lamp? Or is there a
    plastic twist-in base that *cannot* be separated from the glass bulb?

  3. OK, I'm back. Strike the last batch of questions. It is a 579, no PC, and
    no permanently-attached plastic base. Expensive bulb! I have 'em in stock,
    but only by the 10-pack, and I'm fairly sure you don't want 10 of them.

    I burned one out also and ended up at the dealer. The OEM plastic holder
    with the bulb wires crimped to is said wagner on it but the replacement is
    bulb only (PC 579) you have to find your own way to attach bulb wires to the
    metal in plastic adapter. What a great idea, dealer was suprised also.
