What size light bulbs go in a 1969 Coronet Fender Signal Indicator and do you take it off from the top or bottom to replace the light bulb? Thanks guys.

are you talking about the optional lights on top of the fender? if so it a ge 300 (recently discussed here, 14 volt is fine) and i believe the plastic lens unscrews from the housing.

Yes I am talking about the optional lights on top at the frong of each fender. So they unsrew off. I was trying to pull them off. I will try that. I thought I already did. They have probably never been removed and I can only imagine the rust, corrosion and dirt and grease cementing them together.

With those bullet style chrome fender mount turn signal indicators you have to been really careful if you are going to unscrew the yellow lenses. Some have a slot and some do not and if they're original they are old, fragile, and break easy. If you remove the entire chrome bullet with the two bolts underneath the inside of the fender it can be easier to get to the bulb. There is an allen set screw on the bottom side behind the rubber gasket on the bullet mount istelf. If you loosen that set screw, the entire socket/bulb assembly, wiring and amber lens attached will pull through the front of the chrome bullet housing. I believe the bulb is a Wagner 550. It's kind of a hassle. But if you don't have extra amber lenses laying around, it may save you from buying one if you break the original.

Welcome! Nice way to get started by a good legit Mopar question! Where are you from and what kind of Mopar(s) do you have or are working on?

Thanks for all the nice welcome to the board posts. This board is not only very informative but also very friendly! I live in Arizona but am originally from back east. I have had 2 68 chargers, two 69 chargers and now a 69 super a12 clone.

Another quick question. Can you guys tell me what size light bulb for the trunk light? Anyone with a 1969 Dodge Coronet or Superbee. Thanks again guys. Mopars Forever!
