Source for W5W bulbs??

Just noticed one of the little amber side maker lights up front is burned out. W5W is the bulb but I've been all over the Interweb and can't find a source. All the usual auto parts stores don't list them as far as I can tell. Anyone else managed to find a source for these? Thanks!

You can substitute a 5-watt 194 or 168 amber wedge bulb, which are much more common here in the 'States. Alternatively, Walmart carries clear W5W bulbs.

No problem. If you can't find any, let me know and I'll see if I have an extra pair in the garage for you.
