Which bulb do I use

After using the seach option and using my service manual I am unable to find which bulb to use for my back up lights. Does anyone know which one goes in a 72 tradewind?

Thanks O63, I thouht it was 1141 but was quickly proven wrong. The extra bulbs were apparently for interior only.

You can use the 1141, the main difference is less wattage (the 1141 isn't as bright).

How about in the scare light?

HIJACKING FOLLOWS.....

I need to replace the one in my scare light. It looks to have a longer throat for lack of a better term than my other bulbs

All I have is an empty recepticle there so I would like to know too. If I had to guess it would be 1156 also.

The scare light is the big round light that looks like a backup light off a bus (because it is). The one in our Overlander was a 1034, double filiment. Do you know if yours is a double or single?
If it's a single, don't use the 1156, it will melt the lens.
The same if it's a double, don't use an 1157, for the same reason.

You would be guessing wrong if yours is like mine
