    Hi guys blew a bulb in my Springer ... has after market tiny Bullet indicators on with 12 V 23 Watt bulbs ... BUT ... they are the ones with a small Globe area ... i can get the bigger Globe area types but they don`t fit into the Lens area of the indicator .

    I can fit a smaller 10 Watt bulb that has the smaller Globe area but dosen`t flash ... i can run some Load Equalizer`s on the wiring but wanted to see if i can source some bulbs first before cutting into wiring ... would have thought with all the Tiny Indicators on Harleys out there these days there would be bulbs that suited .

    Tried about 5 places up here in Brizzy so far and no luck as yet ... any ideas gents .

    I use the same globes, and I got spares from repco.
    I think they were Narva brand.
    I can check the part number if you get stuck.

    Have you considered LED bulbs?  They might be smaller.........but would also need a no load flasher unit

    Hi Speedzter ... thanks for the site address for bulbs ... unfortunately they only seemed to have the 9 mil base type and I needed the 15 mil base type .

    Got lucky and found one and it works , ye ha ... posted another question about if anyone has used Amber bulbs with Amber Lens ... not sure if they would be bright enough , any ideas .
