It was always suppose to be barely noticible.

Imperialist Jan;

 

    I have often wondered how the light bulb from the brake which faces 
the rear red lens in our gunsight tail lights can present that kind of 
light to make the amber light in our rear views actually 
work/seeable.....I always thought that the engineer's should have put a 
tiny bulb in the other side of the brake socket to face towards the 
amber so that lens did not have to rely on reflected brake lights to be 
seen.....even after installing new George Laurie Lenses all around and 
even replacing the bulbs on my '56, I am still hardly able to see that 
amber lens in the rear on the darkest of night's...

Hi

 

My 1955 sedan has yellow lenses in the tail lights that face forward 
allowing oncoming drivers to see the turn signals and also the brake 
lights. They are also visible in the rear view mirror so the driver 
knows what's working.
