Default Re: Halfords Bulb code for rear brake / rear light

Interestingly the bulb suggested by the Halfords flipchart for the Crossfire and by every on-line provider is totally the wrong type for my car. Mine has a bayonet fitting, a la a reading lamp, but the one suggested is a push in type:

Bulbs: CHRYSLER-JEEP / CROSSFIRE COUPE / 2004 (04)

Someone must have got a replacement bulb from Halfords and knows the code!!!
Read post 3, the 380 bulb is correct, the 21/5w is not a code it is the wattage of the twin fillament. 21w brake light/5w tail light.
