280se very fast indicator

Yes, I know, the bulb is likely burnt out.

But both of my indicators are real quick.
The lights all function perfectly fine.

Are the relays busted too? or would a bulb replacement be enough?

On a sidenote, where does one buy said bulbs..

Alex

So I took out the bulb but the glass sheared straight off the metal cylinder. Now how does on remove that?

Might be best to remove the cluster and do the job on the work bench.  Likely the fitting is corroded so you'll have to use some spray lube like PB Blaster or WD40 to get it to release.

Got the bulb out with a pair of pliers.
Shopping for a p21W or BA15S replacement today.
