Front sidemarker bulb p/n - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Prong · 01-10-2010, 07:26 AM

I'm in need of the correct bulb part number for the front sidemarker lights on a 79 truck. The Sylvania book I looked at called for a 67 (bayonet type) bulb and this is wrong. They take a peanut (push in) type, but I couldn't find a number on them. I'm guessing they're not 168's or 191's because these have two filaments, right? Any help would be appreciated.

194's & 168's are the same size and both will fit the side marker lense's.
The 168's are a bit brighter in candle power than the 194's but not by much.

edit: mines an 86 though, so idk if the 79's are different.
