Hello Marty,
#194`s are the correct bulb for the advisory lamps (Security, Lo
Coolant, etc.), turn indicators and some of the small exterior lamps.
Eckler`s has these for $ 1.25 each. Four #891 lamps are used in the
roof mounted stop lamp on C4s -- Eckler`s asks $ 11 each for those (p/n
20092).
I think that Haynes is just parroting the owner`s manual that the
cluster bulbs are non-serviceable--actually, not so. I bought four of
them at a local dealer several years ago for about thirty dollars.
Eckler`s lists "instrument cluster bulbs with sockets" as p/n # 30889
for $ 13 ea. You might also check Mid-America.
HTH....... Mike.

Thanks Guys,
In my searching someone said to put 194s in the cluster as they don`t "cook"
the sockets and c-board. The 194s are too long and won`t allow the metal
caps to seat and are a bit dim.
I also found that the 891s are an alternate to the #88? factory bulb.
Oh well, I got bigger fish to fry. Found after removing the dash pad,
cluster and bezels that all the dash mounts are busted on the drivers side
and at least cracked on the passenger side.
Sigh.....
Thanks again,
Marty

I have been looking around at all the Sweeeeet interiors for the C5 and
C6 like the Xtreme stuff, etc. But, I don;t see any cudtom style
interiors or seat options for the C4. Eespecially 80s C4s. Does anyone
have any information on possible sources? I haave all the regular
catalogs from Mid America, etc. but I am sure there has to be something
out there I am missing....
