Which Bulb Type 1156 or 1157 (Rear Turn Signals Brake lights)?
I ordered the auxiliary turn signal / brake light adapter kit from Harley. \\; I currently have the smoked turn signal lenses and wish to keep them. \\; I want to order red bulbs that will shine thru the smoked lenses. \\; Which Bulb Type 1156 or 1157 will I need??? \\; Thanks.

you need the 1156 bulbs. \\; since you're gonna be using the hd kit, it still uses the single filament bulb, just changes the voltage going to the bulb depending on running/braking, etc.

I did the same thing and ordered the red 1156s. The color started peeling after a month and one burned out. Went to auto store and got red gel caps to put over the original bulbs and they look great.

 \\; Custom Dynamics has these bulbs that are natural red glass color.

Thanks guys! \\; I thought it was the 1156, but wanted to make sure before I ordered them from Custom Dynamics since the shipping is more than the bulbs! \\;
