It's definitely the picture! The lights I replaced were white and the color is much redder in real life.

We decided just to replace with LEDs. I got a set from Walmart, which turned out to be slightly too large. We removed the housing and shaved a bit off of the insert for the car, and now its working perfectly!

@Hemi Dudewe did exactly that this morning, and it worked! No burns and no more leaking.

I'll have a look at it later today when I install the light. The leakage is very minimal, it's just slightly damp after running the car. Do you think it's a part that would need replacing or should I just seal the leak?

My TC is leaking a small amount of fuel from this part- I'm sure the name is in the manual somewhere but I can't find it! Thanks in advance!

Hi Bob, Yep, that's what mine looks like. I think I'm gonna take Hemi Dude's advice and just replace with an LED strip! Less bulbs, less headache... Just wish I'd had that idea before buying a bunch of bulbs

Oh wait I see you've replaced it. I'll do that! Thanks for all the help! Edit: one more question, do the LEDs have to be rated for a specific power level?

I was referring to the metal thing that holds the individual bulbs to the wires, do those LEDs slide in the bulb holsters or did you replace the whole thing?

Thanks for the response! I'll give that a try... Honestly replacing with LEDs was exactly what I was thinking- seems like it would save me the headache of having to fiddle with this thing down the road. Did you remove the whole bulb housing?

Howdy everyone, I just recently purchased a '89 Auto TC- it's a pleasure to drive and very well maintained for it's age, but I am running into some problems with wiring. The second day I drove it, I got pulled over for having a third brake light out. I took it to my friends house and we got the third brake light housing out and rewired/rebulbed with fresh 921s and... Nothing. We're getting a current to the bulbs when the brake is pushed, but nothing is lighting up. We had them briefly turn on with the old (broken wires) but after splicing they wont work at all. Does anyone have experience with this same problem, and what additional diagnostic information should I provide? Thanks in advance!
