Vanity Mirror Bulb

I've been searching on multiple forums, under multiple chassis boards and cannot find the info I need.

What is the bulb number for the vanity mirror bulb for a w202/w210 (since I found out they use the same visor)? I pulled the bulb out but it has no numbers. It's 36mm long, skinnier than most bulbs in the car.

Also, what's the easiest way to access these bulbs? I pried the white plastic cover off and reached in and snagged the bulb (I know there has to be an easier way).

Thanks.

Bump.

The LED bulbs for these came in today. I'm trying to figure out how the hell to access the bulbs easily. I've pried open the white plastic cover over the bulb and popped the bulb out that way, but getting a bulb in is another story.
