Had a problem getting festoons for my early S2, 3 X Flat festoon in a row, nearest I found was Scooterrestorations but still had to bend the holder a little to accomadate the lamps. Even bought an 6V led conversion as I had almost given up. Will dig out sizes/wattages tomorow.

Think I've wired mine up wrong then! Is it just a case of swapping the black and pink!
