Forget car part numbers. You need to use the bulb type/socket part numbers

The kind you are looking for a P15D-30 bulb.

LEDLight sells them. Ive got 6v ones in my CMP and Jeep and will be putting the 12v ones in the Otter.

My only word of advice. Once you get them, melt in a bit of solder in the joint of the outer ring and the socket base. Otherwise the three undersized dimples will loosen and the bulb will rotate in the outer ring. This results in the contacts not matching up.
