Thanks for your response. It appears to be different. I have a lead on one.

Thank you for your response but I am only looking to add a second trunk light assembly for extra lighting.

I recently changed all my light bulbs to “Ice Blue” for that personal touch. I installed Led bulbs for the trunk but not quite bright enough so want to add a second light. There is a scrapped Fifth at a local salvage yard but next to impossible to contact the owner for permission...

Success at last !!! All dash lights changed to #2825 (5W). Originals were #194 (3W) but not bright enough. Don't know if due to age or not. Was going to go with #168 (4W) but said not taking a change on regretting to use the #2825 in light (no pun intended ) of all the work involved and no...

I installed sequential module “STS Universal” for my taillights from webelectricproducts.com..... very cool effect and sure you will love the result.

Thanks for your comments. A friend suggested the same to disconnect at transmission. That may very well be my next option. Getting close to putting “Lucky” in-offsite storage for the winter so may have to wait till next summer to try again.

Mounting screws ?? Please explain exactly where and which mounting screws You are referring to. When I had all the screws out I tried wiggling forward a little but no go. Everything was loose except for the speedo.

Thanks for the post. I have followed the OEM shop manual exactly. Steering wheel cover off but impossible to put enough pressure on the speedometer clip to release. I have small paws so obviously I am missing something. Can’t imagine try to re- connect. If I was smart I would leave as is...

The spare has never been out of my 1988 5th Ave but unfortunately it is in secured storage for the Winter season so I can’t do a physical check on proper tire storage or take a pic.

Update— My bud just called to advise his 78 Newport “Mona” is Home again safe & sound. Brake Booster was sent out to be rebuilt and was refurbished and received back in only 5 days. Installed and working fine now after having vechicle tied up for 3 months looking for replacement...

Thanks fellow members for all the prompt responses. My buddies (owner of the ‘78 Newport) mechanic has sent his old brake booster to some where in Western Canada to be rebuilt. If that doesn’t work out we now have lots of leads thanks to your replies.

Hey guys & gals, Need your help to locate a Brake Booster for a 1978 Chrysler Newport for a friend. His vechicle has been a local garage for 5 weeks with mechanic being unable to locate a replacement brake booster. To make things worse my friend is disabled and is totally reliant...

BudW..... would you recommend going with the halogen 168 in the cluster assembly rather than the halogen 194 ??? I know the 168 should be a bit brighter than the Halogen 194 but don’t want to overheat the socket. Gporeilly
