There aren't replacements for either, you can buy some LED's and wire them into the ones ones to light up the door handles, its pretty easy. As far as the radio controls, you have to buy new controls if you want lights, I suggest a scrap yard, thats where I got mine.

It's a #57 or #74 bulb (actually LED as they don't sell the bulbs) on Ebay... I put white ones in and love them REALLY cheap !

Just in case you want a regular replacement and not an LED like everybody is trying to cram down your neck, I got my lights from Advanced Auto and it's a Sylvania #73 bulb. I had just replaced the tiny driver's door light yesterday. While you're at the parts store, take a look in the catalog of replacement bulbs hanging off the light bulb aisle to see what goes in the wheel controls.

Believe it or not they do sell that bulb other than an led (as posted above^) but I would recommend going with an LED anyways; they're no more than a dollar a piece and are much brighter.
