- 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 John Dei

- When I bought the lenses (years ago) from either Moss or Abingdon, they appeared to be the only kind available: plastic with a noticeable "dish" to them so they curve out a bit from the rim of the pa

- The real problem is that the 1157 bulb has offset pins, whereas the MGT parking lamp socket requires a bulb with straight pins. Moss No. 170-900 (sorry, at this time of night I have no access to a b

- Further to last night's e-mail .... the correct bulb for the T-series parking lamp is an 1176. Turn on the parking lights before you begin to install it. The bulb, obviously, has a bright and a less

- Hi John, If you can't find the glass lenses that clear the 1157 bulb, you might check www.superbrightleds.com (it may be spelled "brite"). There are drawings with dimensions for all their bulbs. They

- What brand filters do you use? I use WIX 51302 in my '64 Morgan (TR4A engine). The gaskets fit fine. TD is probably a different filter but I would be surprised if the WIX gaskets didn't fit as it sho
