I normally use Power Bulbs or Phoenix Bulbs who charge you a lot less for set of bulbs than Halfords. They have a good product selector which makes things easy when selecting the right bulb. Also they come with a years guarantee so if they "pop" within a year these guys replace them for free. The Philips ones are great, I have them in my Freelander.

If buying from PowerBulbs check the on their eBay shop too as they are usually significantly cheaper than on their own website 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
Any issues with the site let me know!

haha funny story!
went to halfords and bought a bosch one.
Fella went outside to fit it for me, he stuck his hand down to get the lights out, and hey presto, the light came back on!
So the bulb hadnt gone, he thinks i must have a loose connection and gone over a bump in the road.
So drove it away with everything working fine. Went over some speedramps on the way out of a shopping centre 30 mins later, and what happens?
It goes out again.
So am taking it to Dealer to check the wiring.
Trying to get them to get someone to look at it saturday, rather than a weekeday as that means i have to have a day off work. And seeing as it was a shedload of cash and its under warranty they shuold be donig it on a weekend!

didnt think of that.
So would calling LRA also be a way to fix the faulty ipod connection?
Otherwise i have to wait until the electronics specialist is free.
didnt know they give you a loan car as well.
