W5W 501 T10
its a very standard bulb , halfrauds ect
Stupid question......
I need to change a sidelight bulb as well - dropped the little plastic bit out under the nose with the 4 x retining clips - can see the rear of the connectors - have pulled and twisted and they won't budge! Any ideas?!!
Cheers

They twist and come out if I recall correctly. You certainly don't need much force

Ahem!!!!...may I refer you to item 10 of the (Mogs) Haynes guide to motorcycle fiddling... http://www.gtr1400.co.uk/forums/index.php/topic,1130.msg12757.html#msg12757
Haynes: Press and rotate to remove bulb...
Translation: OK - that's the glass bit off, now fetch some good pliers to dig out the bayonet part and remaining glass shards.

Cheers - there's no easy way - rubber housing needs a good yank and they're done.....all replaced with LED so jobs a good 'un. :clap:
rubber housing? I can't recall rubber housing! We are talking about those LED bulbs at the front right?
Yep - the little 5 watt ones - there are two very close together between the headlights!! The bulbs are held in place by a soft grey rubber housing - just pull em straight out, change the bulbs and push back in place!
