What is the bulb type and wattage for the side flasher bulbs just behind the front wheels? I am away from the car and have come across some very reasonable LEDs, but don't know which one the 88 Excel has.
Thanks !

I hope you have an easier time replacing them than I did - the old bulbs were so solidly rusted into their holders that I ended up having to replace the entire light fitting. Thankfully a standard Lucas item so easily and cheaply available, but a PITA to fit.

Mine came out fine. But, I am away from the car and need to know what type of base it has. T-10 comes to mind, but I amnot sure.
