Don't VX do one?  Failing that, virtually all motor stores do them, usually contain ones you don't need, but generally go by the headlight bulb (i..e H1/H4/H7).

Given you normally don't get EVERYTHING you need, get the list of the external bulbs (from the handbook) and go to your local motor factors - might work out cheaper.  Doesn't have to be in a flashy case - any old box will do!

Usually, you'll need a headlamp bulb, and one of each of the external ones - given there are usually only 2 or (max) 3 types:
21W single (indicator, fog or brake light)
21/5W double (stop/tail, or tail/fog)
5W single - tail light
and normally a silly 5W capless for the front sidelight, usually the same for the side repeater.

Don't have a Drivers manual for mine, so don't quote me on the above - this is just from experience!
