I've also got several switches that I need to replace the bulbs in.

In other cars (non-Subaru) that I've replaced them for in the past, I've used '12v Subminiature' bulbs from Maplin. Assuming that the Impreza uses the same, it's likely that these will fit:

Clear:

Coloured:

If you go for coloured bulbs, trying to change the colour, you may find that the actual lens/filter is coloured, so it won't work as you expect.

Yep those Maplin ones will do it. Careful when you seperate the switches, as I broke one and had to buy a new IC Spray Switch
