89 vert 3rd brake light bulb help
hey i got a 89 iroc vert and i'm trying to find new bulbs for the 3rd brake light. i did a search and nothing really helped. I went to radio shack and they did not have anything that would work. also trying another radio shack type store in the area and they had a halogen bulb that was 10watts that might work, but 50watts of brake lights seems alittle to much. i don't need to be melting the lens. i read that the bulbs could be found at radio shack before, so if anyone as a part number or any kind of info to help out that would be just great. thanks

the radio shack bulbs work, but you need to trim the legs for them to clear the lens
be nice to figure out a way to convert it over to LED....

I stumbled across a spare in my toolbox last night
272-1177 is the number
Halogen Lamp, 12VDC . 20w
IIRC, it was in a gray box of drawers with a bunch of other misc eletrical stuff.
