instrument panel bulbs

[scouse645]

Morning all, as i'm changing the front fairing bracket on my 1999 bike, for the second time, i am replacing some bulbs from the instrument panel, which had gone, i notice they are 1.7w, not easy to get locally, is it ok to use 3.0w instead?

Yes, but replace them all.
The alternative is led bulbs.
