I need help with a few more dash bulbs for my '48. I need the Bulb numbers:

1 - Instrument Switch Panel Bulb
2 - High Beam Indicator Bulb
3 - Flasher Bulb
4 - Ignition Switch Bulb
5 - And lastly, there are three bulbs at the center of the dash; High Beam Indicator, Flasher, and I don't know what the 3rd one is for. I need that bulb as well.

Thank you!

Here is the chart out of the 48 owners manual for 6 volt bulbs. If you need a cross to 12 v, those were compiled for 51-4 cars by a couple of other posters in this thread. Most of the same bulbs were also used in 48-50 cars


An Ign switch light is odd for a 48 unless yours is a very late car or was changed to the 23rd series ign sw but will probably be the #55 that was used in later cars.

The unknown or missing dash light is probably the R9 OD indicator light and was not used with the R11 OD.
