I ordered one from VW.  It sure looks like a LED (I've got it out).  But,
whatever it is, someone gave me the part number and I ordered one from VW.
hopefully I can get it all put back together.

In the meantime, I'm hoping to pass my saftey test tomorrow by swapping
the high beam indicator with another one of the lights.  Do you know if
they are all the same (anyone?)?

Thanks,
Blake

First, that one is not an LED, but a tiny little bulb with a blue cover (which I thought I was missing but later found it down under the dash). I DID order mine from a VW dealer (Alexandria VW in Alexandria, VA) so it is still available, though it cost $8.62, but that included the blue cover. Changing it can be a real PITA, especially getting  it back together with all the bulbs in their proper slots. If one of the LEDs falls out, be forewarned they are polarity sensitive. Bentley and Haynes both show the procedure, although the pictures in Haynes are a little clearer.    Jeff
