They can be had at any auto parts store and many supermarkets and convienicnce stores, especially those near the highway.
Note that this is the only bulb in the instrument cluster that can be had that easily. The rest can only be had from a Honda dealer.
The Honda part number and description is:
Bulb, wedge base, 12v/3w, 34908-KM1-671
It looks like a #74, or a 17037 (2721), but don't be fooled, it's not. those bulbs are a little bit too small, and they'll rattle around. they're also a lower wattage, so they won't be as bright, which is a problem if it's the oil pressure light that you don't notice turning on.

The standard stock wattage is a halogen 60/55 watt bulb, but many people have had success with 80 and 100 watt bulbs without melting the high-beam switch or any of the wiring. Be careful, however, as you might not be so lucky, there's some variation in the manufacture of switches and wires.
If you want to run a high wattage bulb, it's a good idea to run a new larger fused wire from the battery to the headlight bucket and use a relay switched off the current headlight wire. It will keep the current from running through the switch and you won't loose as much voltage from the stock wiring which is kind of thin for the high wattage bulbs.
If you just want to buy a ready made headlight relay harness, buy this one, it helps pay for this site!
