Title: 93 tail lights
Post by: kb0zke on May 06, 2014, 02:27:12 pm
When we had the inspection done recently we found out that some of the curb side tail light circuit board had started to burn/melt, which resulted in no brake light on that side. I ordered a new light assembly from Foretravel, which arrived today. It came with new bulbs, two each 1076 and 1034. I'm assuming (I know, I know) that the other side uses the same bulbs. I'd like to replace all eight bulbs with brighter LED bulbs. Any suggestions? I poked around on O'Reilly's site a bit but didn't find anything.

Search on Amazon for "1076 LED" and "1034 LED". I'm replacing all of these as they fail or dim or I get a sudden surge of ambition. :P

About $10 for two. Not cheap but not as bad as they were just two years ago. These plug right in.

Thanks, Craig. So far no success on the 1076 bulbs. There are several 1034 replacements, but all of the 1076 bulbs show two contacts on the bottom of the bulb, and a 1076 has only one.

Got out the magnifying glass and discovered that I'm actually needing a 1073 bulb, not a 1076.

I recently bought a bunch of LED lights for the interior from Superbright LEDs. I was pleased with the product. They seem to have a good selection of lights. I will probably buy more to replace bay lights, closet lights, fluorescents, and maybe some light on the Subaru.

I used Superbright LED's all over the interior of the coach. A bit pricey but they are a good product. I used the cheaper LED's for the basement lighting. Reasoning, use the basement light very little and I used a lot of them, enough to light up the whole area if I open a door at night. Next lighting project, inside the refrigerator.
