Default Alarm bulb through triple pod

Hi can anyone help me relocating my alarm bulb through a triple pod hole although the black plastic that surrounds the bulb is snapped. Can these be bought from anywhere ad the bulb just slips back into the dash. Any help appreciated

Bulb


Plastic surround


Thanks
Martin

it's not a bulb, it's an LED, what you need is an LED holder.
Measure the diameter across the narrower part of the red LED, then look here:

From simple plastic, to two-part to nice metal ones. Take your pick.

Find out the size of the bulb. If you don't want to buy a shed load, I'll chuck one in the post for you.

Edit, I've only got 5mm bulb holders, but if you want a clear 5mm led that flashes red, just found one in the garage.

I change the alarm LED on mine years agao for a rainbow LED, Blue/green/red/purple etc. Don't know why, but I kept it like that. When the immobiliser is armed, it goes through the colours slowly. When it flashes once armed, it only flashes red anyway.

Thanks for the offer buddy I'll measure it later and let you know. I do only need the 1 to sit on the pod.

Thanks again
