Finally got here catching up. Those bulbs were also used quite extensively for dome lamps, with and without the caps on them. That may help in locating a new one. They may have a different number, but should work just fine. Different numbers usually relate to varying candlepower, so make sure that if you do find one it's not too bright because it may melt the lense.

Got a whole bunch with caps; some pointy, some stubby but only the one 550 bulb Geoff needs.

I've even pulled off the caps when in need.

Is the 550 bulb unique in length?

The 550 is of a 'bubble' design. I have all the ones that you're thinking of, but not, that one and only, 550.

It's hard to win an argument with a smart person, but it's damned near impossible to win an argument with a stupid person.

I was wondering the same thing yesterday when I grabbed the one bulb on my way to work. 

Here's the answer.   :whoo-hoo:
