ok got sick of every one telling me my brake tail lights only work on one side,  so I headed down to repo and grabbed sum blubs,  all sorted.  A rather important item when being followed by a 120 and your following a cop in a Jap thing who’s leading the way  while playing with the kids,  IE late braking on dirt roads
2 weeks latter   1 bulb has blown and the other side has melted the lens,   now do these bulbs come in different watts  or is it just crap lens.

Yes they do come in different wattage bulbs, don't have the info to hand but I think they are 21W/5W combo (stop/tail) from memory.

Philips #2 but you'll have to remove the lens to get to the retaining screws as the are a larger fitting shroud like the NAS lamps.

And you'd have to do the job properly and put your old lights on the SVX:eek:
I think we should stop here.  There was a set of SVX style tail lights on eBay UK a while ago from memory.

Search on the fourm for LED's there's a mail specialest supplier who's cheap. Auto shops and Jcar are really expensiver in comparison
