Vintage guys, bulb source?
06-03-2013, 05:53 PM
Looking for a bulb for the Cadillac that goes in the lamp above the radio, the bulb I pulled out is a GE 550, tubular type bulb. Searching google has turned up nothing and OPGI has nothing listed for it.

Really? It kind of looks like it might be right, since it matches the part number and the description of what he's looking for.
OP, that's a weird one. I found two possibilities, but they really don't look right to me.

Looks like a GE 570 would work.
