Jim Carter sells a tail light changeover bracket. Part No. LG290. It lets you put a 21 cp bulb in for the brake light. What they fail to say is what bulb to buy. I am going 12 volt and I just happen to have a set of original tail lights on a 2 ton and I am wondering what bulbs should I get with this modification

You've got a couple of choices... you could get standard bulbs or LED. The socket Carter sells for dual filiment bulbs is pretty standard you could take it to an autoparts store and match it up with either the standard or LED style. If the FLAPS doesn't have LED try a truck stop.

1157 will work for a 12v application.

1154 will work for a 6v application.

LEDs are available in a "Double Poled" variety for this sort of thing.
