Recently one of the bulbs in my (2003 MT) Baja blew and now the right side of the speedometer is dark, I was looking at replacing it but I cant tell which bulb I need. In the process, I also found out that my check engine light bulb blew as well so I need one of those too!
It looks like the part number is 85066 for both of them? I'm assuming there are differences for colors but looking at parts sites, I just cant distinguish which is which. Anybody had any luck with this?

Re: Instrument Panel bulbs
When I replaced mine, I'm pretty sure I just got lights with a T10 (10mm wide) base for the speedo/tacho (two each, total four), and a T5 (5mm wide) base for everything else. Didn't get OEM replacements, so not sure the correct part number. I wouldn't recommend getting LEDs, because they don't have the same beam pattern as filament bulbs which resulted in some spots brighter than others... Took me a while to correct it using aluminum foil tape on the bulb.

Re: Instrument Panel bulbs
Here’s the illustration of the cluster.
Here’s the diagram, which is looking at the back side of the cluster, so opposite of the illustration above.
Here’s the bulb part numbers. Your check engine light is #1 or A, part number 85066GA110
The speedometer is #2 or B, part number 85068AE070.
