Default Red bulb for foglamp - where?

Can anyone direct me to an online shop for a red bulb to replace the one I "lost" after installing STI rears on my classic - been trundling around without one and MOT is coming up soon. I'll be using the OE wiring and can't remember if I need one with the pins opposite or not.

thanks in advance.

Hi, i'm wanting to fit my STi lights on MY00 classic. Any pics or tips on how to convert the reverse light into a fog light?

Thanks,
Phil.

the wiring loom that houses all the bulb holders into the OE & STI clusters are different but they're on a plug you can just disconnect. after replacing the clusters to the STI one's replace the loom with the holders on the drivers side with the one you've just taken out as the STI one doesn't have the 4th holder for the foglamp.

get a red bulb for the foglamp and use the reversing lense for the new foglamp - you don't need 2 reversing lamps. Only problem is that the sockets are slightly different so I used duck tape to keep the bulbs in place.

Also the indicator bulbs are slightly different, you need the type with the pins that are NOT directly opposite one another - I got orange bulbs with mine but if I was going to use those it made the lamps just as orange as the ones I'd taken out...
