    Hi

    I've finally sorted out my much coroded and non functioning courtesy lights. The ones at the front are now back in business, but the ones at he back, I don't know what bulb they take. It's one with a dual contact at the bottom, by the looks of it. Oh, by the way, the car is a 72 Centurion.

    Many thanks for all the help I've been getting....

    if the car is a convertible, the bulbs in the armrests are #90.

    Ehhmm... when you fold the seat forward, and you're about to step in to the back seat. You could probably put your knee right into it. It's right at the corner, where the door closes, but inside, right under the armrest for the back seat. Hope it didn't get too confusing, I'll check with #212 tonight at Pep B. If it's not the one you thought it was, please mention this, since I'll check back before I go..

    Many thanks

    Does that mean we are right? If not, it's got to be one of these.

    It was the #90. I now got four working courtesy lights, (thinking about putting in "porn red" bulbs instead:Brow: . And I also spent a little time to make sure all other lights were working... So for the first time, all lights are on (excepet indicators, which work when they feel like it). Someday I'll gather the courage to dive in under the steering wheel again and sort it out, but it was just too expensive last time. Tomorrow, I'm going to have a look at a digital camera, so maybe I'll post some pics of the green giant tomorrow.:cool:


    Many tanks for the help..... :beer

    Oops, the picture just appeared, that's a handy piece of paper you've got there, where do you obtain such precious material?

    1972 Buick Chassis Service Manual. Everyone should own one. They are available on CD Rom, and on Ebay.

    most owners manuals have a comprehensive bulb listing too.
