i am working on my 2006 impreza i finally figured out how to take off the cover for the gearshift and found the dead bulb it is a little peanut bulb what i need to know is the bulb no. and where can i buy one?

got the cover off and the little tiny bulb out but i don't know the number of the bulb.

still nothing?

Can be found at any auto parts store. Bring the bulb in and match it up. The gear shift lights have always been pointless to me since i know when i want to shift and what rpms give the best mileage.

Usually those bulbs are T-5 (Tiny ones) or T-10 (bigger ones)

 

Please share a photo of your bulb plus its Socket, with us, in order to Help you better.

 

Also I suggest you to use a LED instead the common incandescent bulb.

 

Here are examples and photos of Dashboard's bulb & sizes:
