You can do a couple of things. I first got a small screw-in lamp and socket to replace the bulb in a Lincoln, then I tried an LED in an HR2600 I had a wide angle LED that I ground the top down some to diffuse the light more evenly. Both worked pretty well, of course the LED will last longer though.

And of course...

the standard Lamp in the HR series radio is a 12v to 14v lamp.

sometimes called a "Grain of Wheat lamp'.



It fits into the Orange Lamp boot in in the light frame.

I have seen exact replacement boots in Green in Yamaha Stereo equipment.

It would have been nice if Roger posted a, if not more, of Yamaha equipment had this elusive green boot.
