I purchased new bulbs for the interior of my Charger and have run into problems trying to install them. I used the attached Bulb Chart for reference, and purchased Sylvania bulbs from my local Autozone.
First up was the #1004 Dome Lamp bulb, which had been missing already. No luck getting the bulb to twist and lock in place.
Second was the Center Console #90 bulbs with the same result.
In both cases, I was pushing the bulbs hard enough downward that shattering the bulb glass was a concern.
One thing I noticed on the old Center Console bulb was that the bulb leads were both concave, while the new bulbs leads were convex.
Do I need to grind these bulb leads down in order for the bulbs to fit?
Anyone else run into this issue?
