Default Bulb spec for 3rd brake light bulb for Hi-Lite II

I need to replace the bulb for the Hi-Lite II (by Lasercorp) 3rd brake light in my '84 XJ6. Ideally, I'd like to replace it with a red LED, if such a beast exists.

Anyone know what this is?

Thanks in advance.

yes, my 1997 Ford Aerostar uses those in the high-mounted third stop lamp and at the rear interior lamp.

it is a GE 168 bulb

Thanks. I got a red 194 LED which takes care of business but without lighting up the whole lens. It will do, for now.

Tidbit

A 168 is simply a brighter version of the 194. The 194 bulbs are very common in a wide variety of cars; if you want a bit more brightness just switch your 194s to 168s.
