Taillight Lense....has anyone noticed there

is a compartment for another bulb at the bottom of the lense? I was replacing my reverse bulbs last night with the 50W halogen bulbs and noticed the tailight lense has another bulb compartment at the very bottom....is this for a non US application? And, it would be fairly easy to insert a running light in there - anyone do this?

Can you tell it's raining and I bored

Which bulbs did you use? Are they gonna be brighter, nicer looking?

It's snowing on and off up here north of you. Too cold to go out and play...

Chris - I hear you, I have the heater going in the gararge and am waxing the Mustang....not much else to do today with the bad weather - raining here now and pretty cold.....last night we had BB sized hail - killed me to watch my F-150 taking the brunt of the storm.....going to have to build a larger garage one of these days......as far as the reverse light bulbs - I picked up the 50W halogen bulbs from Pep Boys yesterday...they look like they are more "focused" (and brighter) than the stock bulbs. I haven't had the chance to check'em out yet - but will post once the weather clears and I can check them out a bit. I was trying to find if the SilverStars were available yet for the rear tail/stop light bulbs....but Pep Boys and AutoZone only had the amber ones available. Front turn signals seem plenty bright to me - the rear need a bit of help though.....have you found any brighter bulbs for the rear yet? Still waiting for Sylvania to come out with the SilverStar for our headlights - they are very "dim" with the stock bulb.
