    After hunting the net over here there seems to be no european match for these bulbs.I take it they are a US military thing.I do have a couple of spares.I'll have to get a box of 10(of each sort) from your side of the pond.All trucks over here(even mil trucks) are 24v 5w for side/parking lights...
