P38A Interior lights

oakey · Jul 29, 2017

1997 4.6 HSE
I have the interior lights above the back doors but cant seem to get new bulbs for them. They have no bulbs in them now apart from the reading lights.
It looks as if there should be lights in the boot roof too but all I have is holes in the roof.
Anyone know where I can get new ones?
Is there a possible reason for the PO removing them?
Ta

Front courtesy lamp is festoon bulb 10 Watt part number GLB272 https://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-GLB272 Rear courtesy lamps are festoon bulb 5 Watt GLB239 https://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-GLB239 No lamps in boot roof. Maybe PO had a dog guard and removed it.

Or the dog ate them.

Thank you folks I will order them tonight.
Never thought of a dog guard but yes definite possibility or maybe a gun rack but seems to be too permanent for that

You are a genius Wammers
Just had a look at the resurrected dog guard thread and that is exactly what I have thank you

Try the LED ones. They're very good.

Think there's a thread on RR.net or someone's blog post somewhere as to sizes.

Mmmmmm good idea but a bit too electronic for me. Do you not need to fit resistors in series and stuff like that?

No, not for the internal lights. Just plug and play but less power usage and better light.

ok thanks Grrrrrr I will have a look on rr.net

So what do you have against Dropbox then? It's nothing to do with Microsoft.

Same principle. They grab your data and sell all the information within to advertising and so forth. I don't stick anything in the cloud unless I have to or am happy to share it with everyone in which case it goes in my Google drive and you lot get a shareable link.

Don't know about the personal version but certainly with my Dropbox for teams, nothing is grabbed and passed on.
