Default replacing backlighting in es300 radio

The backlighting on my 94 es300 radio is out in places. I noticed when i took it apart that some of the lights are soldered on. Has anyone ever attempted to replace these lights? Does anyone know the type of lights that I would need to buy if I were to solder new ones on?

I performed a search for you since there's already a LOT of information about this topic on the board waiting to be read:

Either way, I'm sure our new member will appreciate it!

The LED lights for the screen its self are soldered on. You can't replace them unless you know how to solder, where to buy the bulbs. The buttons can be replaced easily, just unscrew, and replace.
BTW if you do a search, there will be a thread with pictures of how to do this.
