is there any chance you can help me with what type of side bulbs i would need to replace my orange?

just use the ones you already have, you can hardly see the orange bulb through the clear covers

The bulbs are called 501 , W5W , wedge or capless . They are all the same bulb but with a different name . They are the same as the sidelight bulbs and some interior bulbs .

This is just an example on ebay , i can't vouch for the qaulity .

Yeah , they will fit Very similar to the ones i have .

Yeh they will! But see what you think before you go spending money on bulbs. You'll probably find the silver bulbs wont shine as bright as the standard ones which can someones be a problem when itt comes to your MOT

I've got clear side reps with silver bulbs in (they flash orange) The lights not that bad when they flash, but they aren't as bright as standard.
