What bulb?

Post by mfbongo » Tue Sep 09, 2008 12:51 pm

Hi,

I've had my Bongo for a month now and i've just realised that i have no reverse lights!

I've been into halfords for assistance but to no avail! Their 'quick & easy' reference guide didn't really do what it said on the tin!

I've also checked out a few online shops but can only find bulb kits and not single bulbs.

Can anyone help me?

Ideally i'd like to just walk back into halfords and grab on off the shelf.....anyone know the code for the correct bulb? Failing this any info will be gratefully received.

Many thanks...

The Bongo Friendee Service Manual calls it a "Back up light bulb". It is rated at 21W.

It should just that - the standard single filament 21w bulb as used in reversing lights, stop lights, indicators etc etc.

Mine was.

Any Motor Factors including Halfruds sells them.
