Hi,

the way it fits in you would need one of a similar diamater, but basically you could select any suitable small 12V car bulb and make it work I guess. May even be worth considering replacing with an LED and resistor setup, as it's a pain to get to next time it blows.

I'm reasonably certain it's the same bulb type as the cigar lighter in the front, maybe someone can confirm.

Cheers, Pete
