Tail Light Bulbs

Though they are more expensive, I got the 3496 from NAPA. I cleaned the lenses and the housings, and what a difference.

From another thread:
It draws the same amount of current as 1157, but is much more efficient. It produces 43 candlepower on the bright (brake or turn) filament, and 3.5 candlepower on the dim (tail or parking) filament. It also has a nickel-plated base that is much more corrosion resistant than the plain brass base of an 1157, so it's less likely to stick in the socket.
