Osram Diadem Bulbs - MINI2

WHITEY_ · #1 (**permalink**) Jun 18th, 2009, 08:53 AM

Bought a set of OEM clear rear lamps the other day. Got them fine, opened them up and noticed the bottom bulb had smashed, just had to be the brake/tail light and not the foglight which I NEVER use

.

Anyway, I can't for the life of me find a replacement diadem bulb. I phoned up my local MINI dealer but you have to buy the complete bulb holder with bulbs for some silly amount of money probably because they're soldered in. Emailed Mikey at NewMiniStuff but he hasn't got back to me. Looked on the internet...nothing. They're a P21/5W bulb and have two fillaments (one for brake one for tail light). I'm absolutely gutted because I picked up the lamps dirt cheap

Can anyone help me? PLEASE

Hi matey, did you get this sorted as i need to know where you get these bulb from as i dont want to pay £35 for the sake of just one bulb.

Thanks.

Mikey at newministuff can special order them for around the £20 mark each. But I emailed Osram and they said theyre only available in the set with holder from BMW but like I said give Mikey a call/email. I'm currently making a claim to Royal Mail about it for the set because it was damaged in transit
