Rear light cluster

[Stevie-B]

Tried searching for this with no luck.

Does anyone know what the second light down from the top is used for. (Brake light).

What wattage is it as well, many thanks.

Are we talking about a Vectra C here? The top two lights are usually when your headlights are on. I replaced a bulb in mine last night that went, it was 21W!

[solorider]

all the bulbs in a vectra c rear lamp are 21 watt,dont put a lower wattage bulb in

Both are tail lights and the top one goes alot brighter when brake pressed. As above 21w.

Thanks Lad's.... when I got the cluster out I saw the wattage... hard to get those bulbs as well, the fitting is only for the vec and a mondeo..... Sorted now...

Tell me has anyone any hints in getting the off-side (passenger) cluster out... the 2 inner screws are a nightmare to losen, not much space to play with.

There's 3 small nuts holding the cluster on, the top one is the hardest to get at. Once they were off i only hand tighten the top one, because mine are on and off quite often.

is it not a 5w21w for one of the tail lights?

[badback]

Both are single element bulbs, well they are on mine anyway.

I'm in there regularly messing about with my tinted lights.
