so yeah one of my brake light bulbs burned out and it's a OEM European bulb, and I've been to a few places that have odd car lighting bulbs and no one seems to have anything in this size, or if they do it's the P21w bulb, not the P21-5w bulb that i need for replacement.
so I checked out e-bay and of course they have it, but only in LED's, and most are from china, and available in 4 colours ( I only need white, but I don't trust anything being sent from hong kong ), so other then e-bay.co.uk, any suggestions on where to get this type of bulb?
should I go LED or pay the extra cost for the glass replacements from the uk?

I supposed the LED light bulb is what you needed. You could easily install it in your car. I am not so sure but I think this was featured as the top light bulb that has a high demand to users.
