Default Lights out in radio

So, the lights are out in my radio. Not the whole thing, but the numbers. Before tonight only two of the numbers were out, but now all of the numbers are out. Are there bulbs in the radio that I can replace, or am I totally screwed and need a whole new radio. Any help is appreciated.

you can replace the bulbs,if you can find them, but its more trouble than its worth.

I replaced mine with a $2 bulb from Radio Shack. It is no trouble at all if you know how to solder and much cheaper than a new head unit.
