Rear Bulbs

[QuickSilver]

Trying to change all the bulbs in the rear cluster but AutoZone doesn't have any listings for this.

Any numbers?

Never change a bulb again!

Nice but too pricey for my taste.

Hey thanks for that link very very interesting. Any idea if they are manufacturing for other BMW's and other brands?

Well, we may be looking into that soon.

My partner does make conversion kits for most Brit classics - www.classicautoleds.com

Cheers!

AutoZone, or other auto parts stores, will have the bulbs you need, but I strongly recommend, the next time you're in the proximity of a dealership, you get the German (silver base Osram) bulbs from them. They're not all that expensive.

Turn signal, brake light, and backup light are 12V, 21W

Check to see if your bulbs have the two locking tabs exactly opposite each other or if ones a little higher than the other. Directly opposite # for Silvania Longlife bulbs is 1156LL, the one with a tab a little higher that the opposite one is 1157LL.

The tail light bulbs are smaller, and my owner's manual only covers roundies, not square light cars. I think the tail lights are 10W, but maybe sombody will correct me if that's incorrect. If you don't use the smaller bulp in square light cars you'll burn the plastic housing and be mad at yourself. Ask me how I know.

For the 74-76 taillights, the bulb sizes are stamped on the light assembly.

Do not be tempted to put in larger wattage bulbs as they can burn through the plastic.

Correcting my posting above, RealOEM indicates the square light tail light is a 10W bulb.
