Default LED clock bulb with holder -here

Not sure if its been mentioned here or not. If so I haven't seen it. But I needed to replace my clock bulb and wanted an LED so it wouldn't burn out again. I was just looking for a bulb to stick in the old holder but I ran across these on ebay and they are an exact fit!!! I had to relax the little metal tabs a little to keep from tearing up the contact points on the clock, but other than that it works perfect. I ordered several different colors and ended up using the blue.

Good to know. May your Rover last long enough to burn out another clock bulb!

Sweet! Will white give the original color, or would that be green?

I didn't try the white, but I did try a green and it looked pretty original.

I didn't know the clock lit up either. What is the original bulb color?

The original bulb is clear, but there's a green filter inside the clock.
