Pioneer SX Light Bulbs

Hi all, hope someone can help me out here. I just got a Pioneer SX-990 receiver. It all works fine but has some burned out light bulbs. I got the display fuse lights out but cannot find any volt and amp ratings on them. I also cannot make out the volt and amp rating on the 2 screw in meter light bulbs. If anyone has the information on these it would be greatly appreciated. Just for info. my sx-525 appears to use the same bulbs but again I can't make out any numbers on them.

Thanks, Chris.

Most of the fuse lamps used on receivers of that era that I have seen are 8v 200ma. Can't be sure about yours though..:no:
 
Somebody here has these lamps. Can't think of his name. I'm sure somebody else know who I'm thinking of. Maybe they could jump in.
 
Ok, I think I have figured out what the bulbs are supposed to be. The fuse bulbs look like they are 8v 300ma and the meter bulbs look like 8v 150ma. I know I have seen someone on here who sells bulbs but I'll be damned if I can find him now. If anybody knows please let me know.
Thanks,
Chris.
