The map light is a #194 bulb, you can find these at your local auto parts store. The flashlight uses a 2.3-2.6 V threaded bulp, I forget what the PN is. You can get these at a radio shack, or other electrical supply store (possably a hardware store?). Bring the flashlight in with you to get the correct size.

Here's a tip: You can get colored #194 bulbs, using red, amber or blue to obtain a suprising color, and avoid window glare at night when you have to read directions or change CDs.

Good advice. I was about to ask the same question and then I found this thread. Searches are great.
