I've become pretty reluctant to drive the '34 much at night anymore, so I'm probably in a position to sell a spare. I had bought a spare or two years back before the prices went stratospheric (I can remember folks asking $200 and more), and then bought a pair when the Packard Club made the reproductions. I'll take an inventory and see what I might be willing to part with and send you a PM.

For those with an interest and not familiar with the 3003 (and it's cousin 3001) bulb, they were triple filament tilt-beam bulbs used in Solar headlamps, at the height of the depression and only to my knowledge in Packard (1933/34) and Cadillac (1932/33), hence their rarity. The 3003 filaments were rated at 32/32/32 candlepower, and the 3001 and 32/21/21.
