Default Tail Light Bulbs/Blinker Bulbs

This should be an easy question, 1969 Mustang Coupe: What online source sells blinker bulbs (front) and rear tail light bulbs (I think the tail light bulbs ARE the blinker bulbs) the cheapest (including shipping)?

To be honest, it's much easier to just read the bulb number on the bottom and go to your local parts store (even A _ _ _ Z _ _ _ can't mess up selling a light bulb). Just buy some Sylvania or Wagner bulbs and you'll be set.

IF you insist on not going out- www.SummitRacing.com sells the bulbs.

Both the front and rear bulbs are the dirt-common 1157, used since the 50's on just about everything. I can tell you the 1955 Chevy and 2005 Subaru use them, the industry makes millions of these still.

These are dead simple to find. Run to the nearest auto parts store. They have a ton of them. I think mine we like, 69 cents or something.

Now, the 1142 back-up lamps are, as far as I know, unique to the 64-70 Mustang, and are getting very hard to find locally, as are a few others on Mustangs.
