John,
Does your socket have staggered pins? The socket in the side lights on our TD
has the pins in line with one another and the bulb sits back far enough to
clear the lens. The second question is, are the lenses in your side lights the
original type? The original lenses have a deep dished glass lens that stands
out from the end of the side light shell a good 1/4" or more.
Cheers,
Dave

What bulb are you folks using for dual-filament directional/parking lights
on a T?
The 1157 bulb is too tall and touches the lens. Can't find anything at my
local auto parts emporium.
Thanks
