Important tail light note for CS body cars.

I do not know if this pertains to < CS body or 4 drs, but the CS NEEDS to have euro bulbs for at least for the brake/tail light. Otherwise it WILL melt the lens. I just got this '95 CS and all of the bulbs had been replaced with 1156 (single element) or 1157 (dual element). The right side had been only slightly deformed. I am sure that one side went down and one was replaced with an 1157. Then the pictogram was off and the guy replaced the other ones with american style bulbs. The Euro bulbs are slightly smaller and farther away from the lens and may also be at a lower wattage and cooler. The bulb pack is clearly marked with wattages and the euro bulbs actually have the wattage on the base. The small marker is a 5w and there is also a 10w euro bulb of teh same size. Select wisely.
