Replacing brake light bulb

125,000 miles after I bought it, a light bulb has burned out on my MINI. I need to replace a rear brake light bulb, and do not often get near a dealership. Am I right to assume these are pretty standard parts available at any parts store, or is this going to turn out to be one of the occasional little surprises MINI owners have in store?

Can anyone give me a part number, or something specific to look for at an auto parts store? Customer service is not the greatest at the place nearest home, so just telling them I need a brake light bulb for a MINI could get me just about anything.
