Glareshield brow bulbs?

[John Mininger]

I have a 1977 M20J and about half of the bulbs in the glareshield brow to light the instruments are burned out. In a previous post it was said that the replacement bulb is the GE-330. http://www.bulbtown.com/330_Miniature_Bulb_Midget_Flange_Base_p/330.htm

But my sockets are not that flange style. They are the small bayonet style. Like:

http://www.bulbtown.com/1893_Miniature_Bulb_BA9s_Base_p/1893.htm?gclid=Cj0KEQiAnIPDBRC7t5zJs4uQu5UBEiQA7u5Ne_rMclN0NYDEzeYSsD0HkBGwf-DIr9ZNOwu74UPKwtUaAimI8P8HAQ&cvsfa=3271&cvsfe=2&cvsfhu=31383933

I did take a 1893 bulb out to try and match, and I did find 1893 bulbs at the local AutoZone. But there were a number of different bulbs in the various sockets of that fixture and I'd really like to replace them with the correct bulbs.

Can anyone tell me what the actual replacement bulb is for the BA9S socket for the brow lights of an early J?

Thanks, John

Of if you have a friendly A&P you can have them do the set up.... Way better lighting then the old style plus the option of red at night.
