green bulb cover for altimeter

in the grand scheme of things this has got to be one of the most minor questions ever!
I've got the JDM hilux altimeter, and one of the bulbs was missing in it. I replaced it (very tiny bulb, don't know the part number), but now, the right side of the altimeter glows green, and the left side a bright glaring yellow/white. I checked again and the reason is that the other bulbs have a tiny, green plastic sleeve over them changing the light to green and matching the rest of my dash. I've tried going to Shuck's and called Toyota to get one of these but they both said that they couldn't find the part numbers and that I was SOL. Does anyone know where I can get some of these little buggers? Thanks!
