Re: lights!!!!

194 for the side markers, dash, clearance lamps (if they are the stock factory installed type) and 1158 for front and rear parking lights.
However, if they ALL went out... I would think something else is wrong... like a fuse. (did the brake lights go out too?)

Re: lights!!!!

huh?
I can't even tell what you are trying to say. Did you skip a few words all together there?
Your initial post was the same way, but i think I figured out what you were wanting to know.

Re: lights!!!!

Yep 194 bulbs for the side marker lights. And they do seem to burn out on a regular basis.

This came off another board but works great and I run them in my truck.
for the park, turn, tail/stop lights switch to 2357 bulbs and it helps even more if you paint the inside of the reflectors/housings bright white. Those changes made my brake/tail lights about twice as bright.

The ones I had laying around the house had some age on them. They looked like they were opened when I found them under the seat I guess my dad changed the old ones or something.
