So I pulled my ECT power/second shift button to replace the light bulb, and my bulb condom was so brittle it came apart. Anybody have a suggestion for a substitute or replacement? Thank you in advance.

I think most condoms have an expiration date. Fresh pack should get you back up and running.

Yeah my pullout game (with lightbulbs) is usually so strong I don’t worry about condoms. Never thought I’d rip one. Hopefully I don’t end up with a Prius in nine months. But seriously, anybody know where I can find a replacement?

I looked a few months ago. I found ONE vendor who never returned my inquiries. They may have been located in TX IIRC.

Alternatively I thought about car model paint, I know they do a translucent line for some colors. Huh, a completely new issue. This should be kind of cool. I’ll keep looking.

You can buy the bulbs (condom included) from partsouq.
I think this is what you're looking for: 84999-70007. I doubt they sell just the green rubbers.

Huh, I wonder if the green sharpie would work. I think I have one around here somewhere. And yeah I’m in CT, I saw that and got excited. Alas. Anyway, thanks for the part number and recommendation. If I come up with any of those bulb covers I’ll post to this thread where I got them.
As a pinball enthusiast, depending on bulb size, check with a pinball parts vendor.
Good luck
