The D side light went real dim on me couple weeks ago after I changed both bulbs out. Found a crusty/blackened/melted connector si I knew that was going to be a problem...again.
This is the second time Ive had to replace it. The first time I used a Ford OEM connector thats the that is melted again. This time I just bought a $6 ebay high temp hope this one last longer than three years, But both lights bright again.

I cant tell you the wattage exactly...I just use whatever the OEM guide at Oreilly's says I need.
