[DML] A real "Bulb Breaker" :)

[Marc Levy <malevy_nj@xxxxxxxxx>]

SP10076, the tail light bulb (not the brake lamp) went
out.  I almost feel silly posting about a bulb, and at
this point I am willing to bet I will have a "DOH!"
moment when I get the answer.

Parts list says this is a "BULB 5W TYPE R19-5"

However, the bulb itself says "12V 10W". No other
markings on it.

Lucky for me, I have a NOS set of complete tail light
assemblies.  The bulb in there has the markings "ORION
2641.012V10W37R(E1)00250R19/10:1"

Using my "Beautiful Mind" I see the pattern "12V 10W"
in that mess.  :)

Is the part's list wrong?  If it is, that error seems
to have carried over to some of the vendor web
sites... or do I happen to have 2 light with the same
"wrong" 10W bulb?  I have 4 more I can open up to
check....  but it is easier to just type this message
on the DML, no?

Although I see some of our vendors sell this part for
under $1.00 (less than what I could get it for
locally), I imagine shipping would more than double
that price tag.  Does anyone know what to look for
when I go to Wal-Mart to buy it??  (Yes, I also
purchase my consumables at Wal-Mart...  It is the same
garbage made in China that the other stores are
selling for more money).
