Hi all,

anyone got a suggestion for a ready made kit or a list of the bulbs needed for a 944 S2 - to meet the Euro requirement to carry spares.

Something like this I suppose:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/OSRAM-Minibox-mobile-replacement-headlamp/dp/B0017V564Q/ref=sr_1_19?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1499957859&vehicle=92-1186-212-2989-1-0&sr=1-19

Thanks in advance.

I carry a similar kit, of course, it bears no resemblance to the lamps actually fitted to my car...................no one has ever checked it...................only had it since 1980 :roll:

It's been a few years now but I got my kit from Halfords, IIRC at least half the bulbs were good for the car..

I bought one for the Cayenne for our aborted Laon trip. It was 30 bulbs of every shape for less than £10. I have just replenished the other one as I robbed it for the Cayenne. Providing it has H4 in it the rest you can get by with.

Thanks Guys,

I just bought this one.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B001B4TI0M/ref=pe_3187911_185740111_TE_item

Cant believe its only £4 - but if it keeps the Gendarmes happy so what.
