Don't worry about finding a specific 'caravan' bulb, use a 'car' bulb of same spec - 12V, 21W, BA15s (SCC) Base. The only difference I can find is that the 'caravan' bulb lacks the 'E' approval marking required of a car bulb, which would make it marginally cheaper to produce!

Most caravan accessory shops sell the standard car bulb as duel purpose road light/interior light use. Doesn't matter where you buy it from, doesn't have to be a caravan accessory shop which tend to be more expensive than auto spares shops.

Here's the original spec on a manufacturers web site: https://www.ringautomotive.com/en/product/r1003

As Monty says, these look like standard car bulbs (though getting a bit old school these days!!).

There are LED replacements for these which should be much longer lasting and use a load less electricity (which can only be a good thing) and these days they are not really that expensive as they once were. The brightness and the colour may vary though so if you take this route then look for warm white bulbs (2700k-3000k) with a similar Lumen figure (brightness)

If you're running off a leisure battery at any time, LEDs will make a huge difference so don't replace them with those old school power hungry little car tail light bulbs..!
