Rear brake bulbs

[adyw]

Gents, has anybody bought rear brake bulbs online lately, I've just used my last spare and thought no problem nip down to Halfrods and get some more, and guess what, no longer in stock and the 15 year old twit in the shop trying to tell me its a single filament bulb mate " THATS because it's broken"
can anybody help.

Any car spares shop sell them about £1.50 each,,,

The Rear brake bulb on my Griff is the single filament 382 21w opposite pins in the lower most reflector... available everywhere


The dual fillament bulb in the upper reflector, which was presumably side/brake on the Cavalier is wired side/fog on my car?

Are they not all like this?

The brake lamp bulb on my car is also single filament 21watt. The twin filament bulb is for the sidelight and rear foglamp. The handbook says 21/5 watt but mine is fitted with a 21/4 (566) watt bulb with slightly different pin arrangement.

This confused the MOT tester because most cars of that era used the twin filament bulb for the stop and tail lights.
