google LED automotive back up lamps…click on to the listing for www.alibaba.com…they list available bulbs for a stock housing…you would need to know what stock bulb you need…1156, 1157 etc…these are LED bulbs as replacements for OEM filament bulbs :)

I’ve tried the 1157 bulbs before several years ago and didn’t like them. They weren’t bright enough. Maybe nowadays though.

Also, a couple of the sockets on the 63 wagon are bad.

they make new replacement sockets…the socket base itself is the ground…if you have a bad ground you’ll have no light or very low light…on mikeschevy.com sockets are about $5 a piece :)
