Did you cut the terminals down too, cos they're way too big for my connections to fit onto?
September 1, 200816 yr Author UPDATE - I FOUND THE BULBS I NEEDED! DESPITE MAIN AGENTS ALL BEING STUMPED, I SPENT A WHILE ON GOOGLE AND DISCOVERED THE BULBS I NEEDED WERE ACTUALLY USED IN JAP IMPORT CARS (EVIDENTLY MY BIKE HAS BEEN AN IMPORT). SO WENT TO MY LOCAL MOTOR FACTORS, QUOTED P30T AS THE BULB REF AND BINGO!!! QUITE EXPENSIVE AT £19 EACH, BUT CANT REALLY DO WITHOUT THEM! THANKS FOR ALL REPLIES - HELP MUCH APPRECIATED.
