Sony 511a rescue

Hello, I've just got hold of a Sony HP 511a - it's a tuner/amp/TT stereo system from 1972. I'm a little disappointed because it looked like it had an adjustable counterweight on it (and I think the 611a, which contains a Dual deck actually does) but this seems to be pretty set.
Anyway, till I get a cartridge for it, I won't know how well the TT works. For now, the rest all works fine but the lamps behind the tuning screen are all blown.
Does anyone know where I can find replacements? Are these pretty generic? Can't seem to find a mention of them in the service manual.

Many thanks.

Probably going to have open it up and take a look at what is in there. Voltage can be had from the schematic.
