I put a couple of extra eagle eye leds in, but to answer your question, just take it out & have a look, can't remember the exact type, it's just a twist bayonet bulb, like a rear light bulb

I used this - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Brake-...r=570864027529

But to be honest the single light setup isn't enough - you need more output and from more points or else whatever you want to look at will always be in a shadow.
