replacement bulbs for convert CHMSL??

Anyone know which bulbs these are (part #) in the rear spoiler CHMSL? I have a 92 Z28 convert and all of them are burned out, I can tell they are back-pin bulbs but cannot see any number,etc printed on them and the replacement guides I have seen do not list the convert CHMSL bulbs.

Read this thread on certain year ASC ragtops that used a Ford CHMSL unit with a
GM part #. Did they use this unit on 92s?

Correct info, but in fact it was the same bulb used on the Camaro coupes thru model year 1990. Model year 91 changed to a HMSL in the top of the hatch. I haven't investigated the bulb used in the 91-92 coupes. I stock both a 10 watt and 20 watt bulb for the HMSL that the original poster was looking for.

One point of interest, 91-92 ASC firebird 'verts use the same bulbs as camaros. Because oddly enough, they use camaro light housings.
