Fluorescent lights

I'm trying to find some replacement fluorescent tubes for the interior of my late westy
I can get them from Gunzl but the shipping costs on it are more than the tube.
Are they available in the uk?
(unfortunately the writing on the tube has worn off so I can't search for them like that)
Cheers

Do you mean the actual fitting or just the lamp (tube). I think they're just a bog standard 8W....

Yes just the lamp, just had a ouick search and it seems westfalia tax on these is about 70%
Thanks for that Mr1664 a few pennies saved

I bought mine from my local emporium

every town has one...old fashioned electrical /DIY /motor you name it every last inch of floor space is taken up with something....Potts in Derby...the valve shop in Nottingham (where I got mine)... £2.50 something each.
Here she is:

Like I say every town has a similar establishment.......Saving this I think you'll find your local caravan shop will have them as well.
