Light bulbsby Richard Atwell |
You local auto parts store carries most of the lightbulbs used on your bus. I usually order them online by part number because I like the Osram bulbs with the nickel base like the original bulbs. They are bright, long lasting and about the same price anyway. Some european autos must have a nickel base but aircooled VWs are not this sensitive.
