alternative 3rd brake light bulbs?

does anyone know any alternative for replacing those tiny light bulbs for the brake light on the rear spoiler? those tiny bulbs are so expensive to replace about $9 each and there are so many of them. thanks for any new ideas.

The 3rd brake light bulbs are halogens and I used to pay $13 at the dealer. Then I found them at RADIO SHACK for $1.99 . However; bring a sample with you. good luck
