Re: [Chrysler300] Courtesy light bulbs?

["Ron Waters" <ronbo97@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would advise against using the 1004 for either the roof rail lights (2dr 
HT, 4dr HT), or the courtesy lights. Brighter bulb means more heat, which 
will discolor or melt the lens if left on for too long. That's what those 
brown spots are that you see on used lenses, BTW.

Hi, George:

According to the service manuals for '58 and '59, #1004 is somewhat brighter
than the #90. In the '59, the 1004 is used for the dome light and the map 
light,
while the #90 is used for the hand brake warning light. No specs are given 
for
the rear courtesy lights on the convertible model. It appears to me the 
choice
is the 1004 bulb.

Best,

Happy New Year... Does anyone know the correct light bulb for the REAR 
courtesy
lights on a 57-59 300 convertible?? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
