Need to buy turn signal bulbs locally.

I need to buy front and rear turn signal bulbs for my 81 930. Is there an Autozone equivalent or something I can buy locally? Would be open to LED's as well as long as they are directly swappable.

I've never liked vented quarter panels either. They take away from that beautiful fender flare of the 930. The slant nose destroys the other beautiful part, the frog lights.

OK, So I took the tube off. It looks like the key that goes with the tube has been rounded and explains why I couldn't turn anything when I tried to engage. So I was able to put my Allen directly...

its a 1981 930.
