David,
	This is pretty simple an inexpensive fix. The bulbs you are looking
for are the standard 1.2W (if I remember the wattage correctly) tiny bulbs
that go into all E30 switches. They should be available from your dealer for
around $1 or you could search for them at a local electronics store. 
	If you go to the dealer, have an old bulb in your hand to give to
the parts' guy. BMW does not list these bulbs as individual replaceable
items for all the places where they are used (they are definitely doesn't
for window/sunroof/defog/etc switches - BMW will try to sell you the whole
switch). 
	Do yourself a favor and buy a bunch of these bulbs in advance. Good
ones tend to flake out from age after you touch them.
