Yep the dealer has them. There like 2$ each. When you take the dash apart and take out the control unit. (you can leave it all pluged in) you will see 3 little white spots on the back of it. Take a pocket screwdriver and turn them they drop right out. I'll find the part # this afternoon for the bulbs.

part number - 05013815aa

There is a 1- on the front of that number on the package, but i think that is just stating that there is 1 of the 05013815aa

I would think that the ones for my 04.5 would be the same buld as your 06s..

Yeah but you dont have to open the control unit like he did in the DIY. 2 pocket screwdrivers will get you the same results.
