Preface: I don't want to take any business away from Greimann's LED business... heck I may still pony up some dough for the full LED treatment. But I needed an inspection so went hunting for replacement lamps.
I believe research on this board or maybe .net gave me a GE number. No dice with the parts store. So I looked in the sylvania catalog hangin' on the rack and looked up our car... but the listed lamp is WRONG - the catalog said the brake lamp and the 3rd brake lamp are the same!
Anyway, long story short, I found an answer that works. They burn ever-so-slightly less brightly than the OEM lamps - but perfectly suitable - I seriously doubt anyone would notice the difference unless you saw both lamps burning side by side to compare.
Sylvania number 73... they come two to a pack. About 3 bux, as I recall. Rated 15,000 hours! We'll see.
Hope this helps. <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/biggrin.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />
