Dial light for the 509 no longer available from any source.
Huh? The dial light is just two grain of wheat bulbs in series that glow a dull red with 12 volts, and slightly brighter on 13.8v. You could replace them with anything including the (relatively) new 180 degree LEDs.
The S meter light is just a 12 volt long/life low brightness bulb with the usual bayonet end. I replaced mine with a drop in LED white replacement. I have LEDs for the dial lights, and decided that since mine still work, it was not worth my time to replace them. Eventually I will.
