Have you tried your FLAPS? (Friendly Local Auto Parts Store) Both of my local NAPA and O'Reilly's store have good counter people that know how to look things up rather than relying just on whatever the computer on the counter says.

Or.....

scroll down about 3/4 of the way. Part #K-157

I called my local O'Reilly's, and the part number for a 6 volt round Sylvania/Wagner bulb is 6006

I would think your local parts store, no matter what the flavor, should be able to cross reference.

That bulb has been discontinued. I tried to get one myself. But that place you just sourced is selling the bulb for HALF the price they had on the 6006 and if you check the old Jeep CJ sites, they sell 6v sealed beam bulbs for $27 EACH not including shipping.

I can have two at my local O'Reilly's by 2:30 this afternoon. $8 ea.

They also show as available at AwfulZone Auto Parts on their website.
