2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission No Lic. plate light

[LHastings]

Got pulled over this morning for no lic plate light. Does anybody know what the bulb number is and is there a fuse for this light.

Best bet is pul the lamp and go to a parts place for replacement. If you're as "lucky" as I've been (not) you may find the sockets are melted to the point of requiring replacement. Presently I'm on a set of sockets purchased about 6 mos ago and one is totally melted. I'm trying to locate a replacement socket that isn't a POS - wish me luck.

Thanks for the info I'm going a road trip Friday Night and don't want get pulled over again.

One of my lic. plate light assembly fell out of the bumber and was hanging loose behind bumber light still on. I did a little afro-engineering and got put back where it belonged. (The heat from the light melted something ,don't remember what it was)

Thanks for the search i got the bulbs out and they are 168 I'm going to the parts store now and see I can find the long life bulbs.

You will find the 161 bulb has the same base configuration and has a total current draw of only 180 mills. This will keep you out of johnny-laws eyes and allow your socket to last longer. The original bulb draws 330 mills and will cook-out the socket. A lower current draw will naturally last much longer. (It's the ashtray bulb)



Good luck
