FYI RadioShack closed MOST of its stores. However there are still some around. They close most of their stores here but luckily the one closest to my house is still open. And they probably still have a website presents. However I would take doctor minis advice. Good advice there

So the guy changed out the body module. Everything seems great - odometer and speedometer working just fine except there are still no lights there. Lights everywhere else seem fine. They suggested that maybe when the body module went it shorted a few light bulbs. I am not buying it, however; just to troubleshoot I called Mini to see about part numbers and there are no bulbs that mini carries to fix this. He said Radio Shack would be that place to go and of course there are no radio shacks. So I am at a loss. Is there anyone that can help?
If the lighting is based on LED lights, the solution may be challenging....

Sell it and buy a real Mini. At least you can work on them!
