The dealer.  It's not an LED, it's a specially-shaped incandescent
bulb with a blue cover on it -- blue LEDs didn't exist when these
vans were built.


You could replace it with a blue LED and the proper-value resistor,
but it's enough trouble that simply buying a new bulb likely makes
more sense.  Then you'll be good for another 20-30 years.


Yours,
