1200s indicator lamps

I can get these T20 10 watt chrome capsule lamps from Hornig in Germany but they want £23 inc £10 for postage. A bit stiff, especially as I just spent £12 on two regular shape chrome lamps in error, not realising they were capsules in the front mirror fitting. Does anyone know of a UK supplier?

Hello,

Do a search for "T20 bulbs chrome" on eBay and take you pick - £6.90 the cheapest for 2 -Certainly a load cheaper than Hornig. I bought mine from there - Look much better behind the clear indicators!

Hope that helps

Best regards,

David

I'd seen those and was just about to order but I'm pretty sure that they are 21w I thought that they were supposed to be 10w. I'm guessing they work ok in you bike. No fault showing on the computer because the can bus is reading an error?

Steve,

No - All has been OK. I had them in my K1200S as well and that was OK too.

Probably wouldn't go for the very cheapest ones perhaps? I have had problems with tail light bulbs bought cheap on eBay in my Subaru - They would only last about a week!

Best regards,

David

Having ordered T20' and found them too large I just thought I'd let people know that the correct size is in fact T10. I discovered this after dropping my bike in Switzerland and smashing the indicator and was unable to exchange the lamp. For those looking for 'chrome' indicator lamps I got mine here.

very good value compared to Hornig
