The brake, turn, and reverse lights are supposed to be 21 watt, (1156
trade). The normal tail lights are 5 watt. The front turn/marker lamps are
21w/5w, (1157).

Has  anybody tried the higher wattage taillites being sold by a  vendor?
I have stock wattage tail lights bulbs but put higher wattage (21w)  bulbs
in
place of the turn signal/brake and backup light bulbs.  Makes a  significant
difference in visibility.  I was too chicken to replace the  tail light
bulbs
since they could be on for hours at a time.
