Halfrauds had nothing like.
All the American sites say it is a wedge(T15) bulb or capless.
I gave up and braved the bitter wind and freezing(well it felt cold enough) rain. What a hard job to change a bulb. Boot lining out, then the the lamp assembly, then split the lamp and there are the two bulbs. It was so cold I unscrewed the reverse light and took it indoors. Close look under a magnifying glass and it proves to be just like Snap showed. The whole assembly is what you replace if the bulb blows. I would hope that these would last longer than the car is expected to live.
There was me thinking that headlight bulb changing was difficult. The joys of owning an 8.
