Well I eventually removed the rear LED light module from the Mini. It is not easily done sith the roof spoiler in the way as it needs to be forced out. I then looked around in Maplins et cetera for replacemnt LED light bulbs but they do not seem to be on sale.

Does anyone know where to source these from? The only other options are getting them from another broken one, leaving the bulbs that are out or buying a new one. £43 on ebay for a non OEM part.

You did better than I did when I did a Maplin search but the bulb does not seem to be there. It appears to have four connectors and is more of a square flattish type bulb. I admit that I have not fully disassembled the unit but from what I can see through the plastic none of those bulbs seem to match.

Thank you anyway.
