410 Interior Light

[Pugsley]

A minor issue I know but can anyone advise on where to buy bulbs for the interior light of a 410? They are about £5.00 each from Suzuki and as I may have a fault with the light on mine I would like a few to play around with to try and sort it out.

I think they are only something like this

Yes as darrell said if its the one above the door try taking the bulb to halfords or take it to the closest garage

If there is an issue with it it will probably be the door switch, if the interior light is the same as the samurai you can slide it to one side which should put it on (to prove the bulbs ok), the door switch is in the drivers door between the hinges, the cable runs through your cill then up your roll over hoop, when I was welding my cills I melted the x2 cables in there

Thanks for the info everybody - I googled Halfords last night and they sell two for £2.99 so I'll take an old one and match it.

Re the checking of the bulb using the door switches - I'm afraid these have been out of the equation for a long time but the light still worked. The problem is that the bulbs don't seem to last long and the only time I really use the light is when I'm night shooting (usually to find bullets that I've dropped on the floor) - so I want to check on the current draw with a new bulb fitted.

If that's okay I'll put it down to the hard suspension and rough ground shaking the filament about.

You can get LED bulbs in festoon sizes. No idea how good they are, but LEDs normally last years
May be worth a try
