Title: Which Tail light bulb?
Post by: Anonymous on November 17, 2005, 16:41
I have a W reg (2000) roadster with a failed tail light bulb -- going in to Halfords the look-up guide suggested that there were two possible bulbs for a 2000 car, either a combi or a two bulb pack. Can anyone shed any light on how I can easily tell which bulb i need?

Ta, dan

I didnt really want to do any unnecessary taking apart -- I have an amazing ability to remove things and then break them before they get returned to their rightful place  s;-) ;-) s;-)

The one I replaced on a UK spec 2001 model was a Halfords type 580.  (This wasn't what was written in their guide at that time though, so I made a note for future reference  s;-) ;-) s;-)  )
