Pence from Hellfrauds on trade, though they don't stock many. Can't remember if 1.2W or 2W 12v capless. Last lot I bought were about 40p a pair.

To keep it standard, I'd go for the 2W ones. Hellfrauds do sell them, or at least the ones in Bletchley, Northampton, Bicester and Banbury do. As their website is shite, can't find sod all on there.

That's what I usually do, they end up in my pocket some how when I walk out  ::)

But no time in this instance, need to get back sort a few things out then off again. No time for a scrappy visit  :(

Our local scrappy has taken to searching, so expect a kicking if caught.

Yep, they are the ones, if you have a CID the 3W are far too bright when you adjust the dimming to make the CID bright enough to view in the dusk. The 2.2W ones are a good brightness balance with the display.
