I don't think its a standard bulb size. Its kind of this thin fuse looking bulb.

But there's an easy fix for the complaining issue.

Take it out the working one out of the driver's side and put it in the passenger side. No more complaining.

^Doesn't look like something profoundly hard to get though, but even a special order shouldn't cost more than 1-2 bucks though... But like Jon said it be easier with a swap (unless she drives the car too, or use it as a more dimmed light at night if you're anything like me).

The thing is, both of the lights dont work... the driver one went out a long time ago, but it never concerned me. but now that the passenger went out... it always had me wondering what the bulb size was... but yea, i guess i'll just have to keep looking for a replacement...
