Number plate bulbs
Got one of the bulbs out on my number plate and fancy replacing them both with bright LEDs. It's a my00 uk classic, anyone know what type I need?

Phillips.
If there really bad, or you round the phillips bit off, they can be undone with mole grips if your careful not to catch the plastic.
There only screws so replace with stainless steel / brass if you have them.
Bulb is 501 or W5W - 10 for a couple of quid on ebay
