Tiny soldered in bulbs (headlamp switch etc)

I'm after those tiny incandescent bulbs with a blue cover on them which are soldered "permanently" into things like the headlamp switch... most likely so you have to replace more than you need when the bulbs blow. (No jokes, the dealer told me I'd need a new climate control unit in order to fix the blown bulbs)

Anyone know where to get these bulbs new? I've never seen anything like them before so I'm not sure what to ask for.

They're not standard bulbs, not like anything I've ever seen from 30 years of fiddling with electronics. Jaycar don't sell them.

Here's an example of what I mean:
