Just bumping this post- I really appreciate everyone's input. The tail brake lights have been a real hassle because of the wrong Manual, but thankfully you guys helped solve it. I was content to keep using standard bulbs but I have now had 4 go out within a year. I do drive a lot, and a lot at night, but I'm still tired of changing these- it's pretty bad when both are out. SO, based on what I read here I have just ordered the Philips Ultinon Reds 7443. Really hope they look well and last. I couldn't find a working photo of them on this forum so I am planning to post a photo comparison once they arrive next week. Feel free to contact me with any questions on this.
