Mr. Lee and others,

When I wrote to Mr.Terry he did do me with the numbers of bulbs, at
HAPA.
They had 4, got to oder others.
Very bright, very Happy.
Mr.Terry said he had bulbs in his Wagon for 3 years no melt too mr. Lee.
And he did it to his camper wagon too.
So I think this is good too.
I can see red behind me at night now.
This is good to do so I know if bulbs are working.
And the cars know they are working too.

Mr. Terry was to tell me about some air thing to put to my spring in
back to bring up the back to the place where it should be too.

I think I have to go to the list of things here to find more on this.

You know this Mr. Lee?

Thank you and to others who have wrote me on the bulbs.

Good Morning to you,

Fred

Fred,
Thanks to the infamous Terry Kay, I took his recommendations on these
upgrades and they are working great. You can see bright tail/brake
lights on bright sunny days...and wait till night falls. You will be
seen. The standard brake light is 21W and this takes it to 50W.
I have had these in for over a year now without any problems:
1. Running lights--1156's (same as 1056's, only with heavier duty
filaments )
2. Turn signal, and brake lights-- 50 watt, NAPA part #7352970
3. Back up lamps--Halogen bulbs NAPA part # 795D The back up light bulbs
were the most expensive, and if you shop around, you could probably do
better.
Of course use at your own risk...
Lee
