Anyone know if there is such thing as a high power brake light bulb replacements. If so can they be fitted to series 2 350 wedge?

There are limits to the size of bulb that should be used. Also think of your fellow driver who might get blinded when you hit the brakes and then runs into you. I hate people who use high intensity lights in the wet for the same reason.

21 watts per light is the max legally allowed for brake lights, brighter bulbs can also melt the lens from inside cos of the extra heat.
As for the high intensity lights in the rain, wot about all the dickheads with front fog lights on all the time
