Damian from Wiltshire posted it. He got the LEDs from Farnell.
Bear in mind Farnell have a minimum order value. Interesting to note, this same query has just come up on the other forum. Someone want to point him to the answer here?

I also found led bulbs on e-bay as long as you know the size and fitment, beware the tiny bayonet ones for the instrument cluster I found them to fail and went back to the OEM type bulbe BUT 2.8 w instead of 2.2 in ALL but the alt warning light and the sidelights on bulb. On older bikes NEVER use anything other than the 2.2 w alt charge warning light.

Bought some of these ages ago but haven't been brave enough to try and pull the rear light cluster apart.
Anyone have any tips and pulling it apart and also re-sealing? I have a few LEDs out, so suspect it might not be the LEDs but rather the PCB/connector/something. I suppose I'd find out if were to get of my arse and find out.

Never tried it, but I did pull a headlight apart on the Norge. Sealed it up again with clear silicone sealant. Not leaked in 4 years.
