Where do I get them?

How much do they cost?

On normal mini rear lights, they take normal 60p bulbs
On the clear ones they come as a set of 3 soldered into the housing
last time I checked they wanted about £16 per side.,
When mine need replacing I will be desoldering them and replacing individual bulbs

Yeah, the bad news is that the bulbs are soldered in and you have to pony up for the whole 3-bulb fitting or break the solders and find some "rainbow" bulbs.
The good news is that bulbs are alot more dependable these days. I never replaced a bulb in my '91 Acura/Honda Integra in the 11 years I owned it. £16/$26 once every 5 to 10 years isn't too bad.
