AutoZone stocks 50W single filament light bulbs that I use as
brake lights.  They used to stock 50W halogen light bulbs which
I used as brake lights, parking lights and turn signals in my
previous camper, but they cost nearly $7 each.

After installing headlight relays, my next project is to relay
the taillights.
