In short, > what lights should be one when the parks are on ???? > > kevin chapman Kevin According to my Haynes manual there must be two different kinds of bullets. One that has a dual filament bulb and one that has a single filament bulb.It looks like if you have the parking lights in the Headlights the Bullets are just used for turn signals only. If you have the regular headlights then the bullets are used for Turn signals and parking lights. My manual shows these wired to the Parking lights for the Sealed Headlights but does not show any sidemarkers for the early headlight combination. I hope this helps your confusion as the more I looked at it the more confused I got also. Dana Hall 65 Notch Sunroof 77 Beetle--- End Message ---
