Need red bulb

Post by biggrobb1995 » Wed Oct 07, 2009 11:46 pm

Got a clear 3rd brake light from Contagious18. Now I need a red bulb for it and I can't find one anywhere here. Tried all the parts stores in town and no luck.

It's a standard 906/921 type bulb. Get an LED. I have a red bulb, and it went from pink to white. Unless you can find one that has the color in the glass, it will fade. I just have to get motivated to buy a red LED one from one of the sites listed on here. You will want a wide angle/multi led type. None of the local stores carry red, only amber, or blue, or green...... :banghead:

the LED bulb would be the easiest I did this, removed the buld and just attached this inside...alarm LED scanner... I also found this on clearance in a ricer section at some store a while ago.
