Same bulb is listed for auto shifter light. Here's a link from Virginia Mustang, the number in their part number is the bulbs number #1893.

GB-
Ironically, I just picked one up yesterday at the local NAPA store (not sure what you have down there). I'm showing it's a bulb #1895.

My NPD and MU catalogs each list #1895 for glove box. You would need to do some research to find wattage.

Just got a bright (excuse the pun) idea. Looked in my 68 owners manual. It shows each bulb and the cp (candle power) rating. The 1895 is 2 cp. You can probably google for a conversion factor to convert cp to watts.

AUTOZONE has them also

Thanks fellas. I'll have to do the candlepower conversion thing as they're all in watts down here in NZ.......Wouldn't want to shove a "candle" in there the cardboard liner would probably go up (grin).

It appears that some vendors list it generically for many diff cars. Soooo I looked in my Ford shop manual. On page 15-44 it lists all the bulbs for the diff cars it covers (mustang, Mecury intermidiate, fairlane). For Mecury's, Falcon, Fairlane's it lists "glove compartment" using the 1895, which is 2 candlepower, but for Mustangs, it lists # 1445 1.5 candlepower. Either would do I guess, but that's what the Ford shop manual lists.
