Thx in advance. My 73 Cuda was recently restored and the shop installed painless wiring kit. As Im going thorugh each issue with the car and solving them, Im now to the trunk socket.
There are two bulbs listed for the socket...1004 or 1003.
I bought a 1004 and it has two connecttion points on the bulb and it doesnt fit...see pic, howver the socket has only 1 center contact point.
The center of the socket is dead ( perhaps its ground?) while the small metal rim (just outside the center contact point is hot (12v).
Can you tell me do I need bulb #1003 or is the socket wrong?
Also I dont see a trunk lid switch for this socket...should there be one? or is this some sort of level switch thats tripped once trunk lid lifts up?
