Quick question (too cold now)

What type of bulb would go into the brake/parking light in the rear?

And I could not get the light off Undid the two 10mm screws and it would not come out. Is the other side held on by clips or bolts?

If I remember right, there are two hour glass shaped metal pieces on the side closest to the side of the vehicle. These pieces snap into some plastic pieces. You have to get a screwdriver on the outside and pop it out, just be carefull on the paint and the lens.

yep loosen those 2 screws and smack the light with your palm on the big black piece where the crews come out (left side hit towards the left) they are 7440 bulbs. id suggest getting some 27 watt ones for the back up bulbs and using the old back up bulbs in the burntout bulbs harness (all 3 bulbs are the same type/wattage etc etc)
