Bulb Kits for 07 GS

[Stevo]

Heading off to the continent next week and I need to take a bulb kit with me.

Can anyone advise what bulbs i need to take with me?

I've already got a spare headlamp bulb - H7 12V 55W (only bulb local BM dealer had in stock.)

I think 12V 21/5W for the tail light - is this correct?

So what else do i have to carry? Indicator bulb/s? anything else?

Cheers

Tail light is indeed an ordinary 21/5 watt bulb just like any car uses. I've got clear indicator lenses and only BMW and Halfords (in the tiny motorcycle section) seem to stock them. Note that the retaining pins are in strange positions so a lot of bulbs don't fit. The front pilot light is a 5 watt type 501 but I can't see any point in it unless you want to flatten the battery by parking at night with the lights on.

H7 55w for head or main beam.
21/5w for rear, I'd take two !!
indicators are 10w, be careful here, most car bulbs are 21w, I fitted 18w bulbs from NN and the indicator holders all meted
You dont need any others, but check the law to find out if you need a warning triangle !!
