Hiya Matt,

Being Stateside myself I would have no idea where to find such bulbs in Jolly Old England.

However, perhaps a little information from this side of the pond will help a bit. The bulbs used in a USA spec EarlyBay taillight are double contact double filament 12 volt bulbs. The attachment lugs on the side of the bulb base are staggered with one being about 2 to 3 mm higher than the other.

A bulb suitable for this application is a 2057.

Do you mean like this? You cant see the pin , but one higher than the other

If so standard UK bulb, well that's whats in My Cal import, you can get then from any auto shop or Halfords etc.
