tail light bulbs
« on: October 04, 2011 - 08:49:27 AM »
Hello! Does anyone know what the correct bulbs are supposed to be used in the tail lights? I have a 1970 harness. Are they different for the other years? Thanks

They were pretty common bulbs. I've even found them at Wallmart.    :grinyes:

Bought them and installed them. Now all I have to do is hook up the harness and see if everything works.
