I'm currently fitting an OBC and the bulbs on the white light bar don't work. I've done a search and read the previous posts about this and am hoping to get some from Maplins tommorow and solder them in.

After looking on their website I can't work out which ones to order though. I read somewhere I want some 6V bulbs but the light bar says 10V. Does anyone know the actual part number.

Thanks!

Beware of the carriage charges from CPC on orders under £40.
Plenty of stuff in their catalogue to make up a £40 order though.
