Break bulb replacement

[AndyP]

Broken break light bulb is 12V/21W - the closest replacement I found at Autozone is 13.5V/21W. Any issues? Or did i just open the door for the electrical gremlins to have a party? I replaced both sides for symmetrical luminosity (if that's what you call it). Thanks for your 2 cents.

No problems, will work fine.

Rear tail light bulbs--

OK--if they are silver base bulbs--not brass as source of problem!! Use Bosch if you have access to source.

Do clean and carefully line all inner surfaces of tailight housings with adhesive backed aluminum tape used by heating/AC contractors--as heat resistant to approx. 450 degrees Fahrenheit. For best results get all new bulbs. You will be pleasantly surprised at the level of illumination improvement your stop, turn and running lights will then project.
