Over the years we have had our brick, occasionally a taillight would “go out”, a commonality I think. It seemed the most common one to go out was one of the lowest bulbs, the brake lights.

Recently, that has been an issue far “too much”, so I contacted my mechanic to talk about it. Usually I just take care of the problem myself, either tighten it up or replace it. Mechanic, Dave, says ‘Let's switch that bulb to the top, where that “fog light” is and that light put lowest as a 'normal tail light.’ It’s legal and it “used to be” that way with older models.

So it’s done, Dave did them both in just a few minutes, works great and I actually like it in that it seems easier to be seen by anyone behind us. Of course we don’t have that “bright fog light” now, but the exchange is worth it,IMO of course. Dave says those 2 bulbs now should last much longer, long as the seals stay tight.
