just noticed couple o threads about mot fails & indicator bulbs etc
think my one of my indicator bulbs might be clear but before i check can anyone tell me if they're supposed to be red/orange etc?
think my reflector inside the unit is the only thing thats making them look a white/orange colour.dyin to know now

On the earlier D8 406s where the side repeater is in the black trim the cover is orange so there is no problem.

In the later D9 406s the side repeater moved upwards. The cover is clear and thus it requires an orange bulb.

My last MOT failed because the side repeater wasn't orange enough.
