Can someone help point me in the right direction please. I've combed through the archives and found numerous topics about trying to find the 1966 red flasher knob, relay, replacement, etc............ Everyone talks about 12v vs 6V or whether you should convert from 6v to 12v but there is no mention of where you might purchase a 6V bulb. I have a 1966 convertible. My flashers work perfect and my knob is in great condition but the 6V bulb has blown out. Can anyone please tell me if they know of a place that can supply this bulb. Thanks so much.

It is VW part number N177511 and is a 6v 1.2 watt "wheat" bulb.

The 12v version is N177512.

BugHaus sells both versions. This bulb is still made by Flösser.

This was timely! I need a replacement for the 6v bulb in my flasher switch, and was having trouble finding what kind it is. Thanks!
