waqask64 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Anyone know what this bulb is for? Or if it even is a bulb? Found in the back windscreen plastic on a 2008 mk6.5 fiesta. Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG97 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Definitely a bulb, I want to say it’s the high level stop light bulb but I could be wrong... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomsFocus Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 It's a number plate bulb. Sometimes known as a 'festoon' bulb. Is the filament complete? It's probably blown and been dropped when changing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk LED Dipped beams conversions unfortunately aren’t strictly legal at the moment although lots of people fit them anyway and in all fairness, it’s rarely picked up. Other bulbs such as reverse lights or number plate bulbs are fine to change. Autobeam or CEUK are the “larger” suppliers of good quality LED Bulbs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
