What's wrong with your current bulbs?
Rear/Brake
Indiciator
Reverse
Fog
(x2)

Do you have a facelift indicator loom, as the holders aren't the same size?

Hi don't think there's any thing wrong with the bulbs just wanted part numbers incase they not working and yes I have the wiring loom is this just a matter of plugging it into my car or do I have to get the old solder iron out .

I think as long as you have a UK spec car the wiring loom is the same, just the indicator connector differs so you can just replace the whole loom at the plug. I had an import which doesn't have a fog in the standard loom so had to replace/splice the facelift indicator bulb holder onto my existing loom, you shouldn't have to do that.

As for part numbers of the rear bulbs I don't have a clue as I've only had to replace the brake bulb before which was just a bog standard two filament in 1 brake bulb, just take your current bulbs to Halfrauds and get replacements that look the same, they're pretty standard. All the bulbs will be the same as your existing ones except the indicator which I think is smaller.
