Electrics: 850: - Clock bulb

Last weekend I changed the four instrument panel lighting bulbs on my '95 850 T5. Sods law now the clock lighting has gone. Is it the same bulb?

I don't think it is, the unit comes out after removing the whole binnacle, but I am not sure how it aluminates as its been a while since I've had mine out. I had a similar problem and swapped the unit for another one that I knew worked. It still doesn't aluminate in the dark, so must be a wiring problem!

The bulbs are different - smaller, two of them.
