Halfords do the standard twin element rear bulb for a couple of quid.

If using LED have you fitted a resistor?

Hi Wicky no I was just thinking because I fitted the new side light that just replaces the stock bulb that damien makes I thought with these being the bigger capless bulb I would get away with the same idea thanks for the link on these I seen these and would these work

Without an additional resistor in the circuit you'll save money by using conventional bulbs, rather than buying & plugging in fancy LEDs.

Even though it's for LED indicator bulbs this explains the role of resistor and why its needed > http://www.ebay.co.uk/gds/Load-resistor ... 226/g.html
