If yes, how much would they cost? I'm thinking of replacing all of them just in case. The TV outputs 1080P picture and I love it very much. it's a shame if I have to retire it due to the backlight...

Hey guys, I have a 2005 model 37" Westinghouse TV that i bought in the States. Problem is, it's dying - the backlight "bulb" gives a buzzing sound, and the TV keeps on turning off every once in a while. I wonder if the backlight "bulb" is generic and I could have it changed in any or a particular electrical shops you could recommend?
