Do you know the voltage? If you can't find originals, there are various festoon bulbs for vintage cars and bikes that may do and also prewired LED's that may provide suitable back-lighting.

No mate I don’t know the voltage and a schematic doesn’t appear to exist, next step will be the magnifying glass

Nothing written on the bulbs, any ideas ?

if you feel you can do it safely, check the voltage across the bulb terminals with a meter when the amp is fired up. That's what I'd do, not suggesting everybody should try it though.

Seems pretty high. Are you sure the meter is set right?
