Bulbs for tail light

Post by djhammy »

HI me again

Although i have checked my Haynes manual and wicki I can't seem to find a listing of bulbs required on the van. I only ask as my rear tail light bulb just failed and when i went to replace it the one recomended in Halfords book is twice the size and has a duel filiment? it also won't fit through the hole in the plastic casing which looks like it's that size for a reason. I got the usual response when i asked an assistant.

I can see various other bulbs on their shelf that seem to match but another problem cropped up. When i checked the bulb on the other side i noticed it had a different wattage rating. so i have a 5 watt and a 10 watt which is correct please.

Cheers

Dave/Hammy
