Anyone know where I can get a park/fog bulb for my '60 Biarritz? The bulb says TS 1074 (I assume it is a Tung Sol product). Can't find any as of yet. Where to look?

Thanks  Whit

Some time ago, I bought maybe 10 or 12 pieces at Yesteryear www.car-nection.com/yesteryear The owner is Dave Soltow; he still may have some.
I still have some in stock, but I have the impression it would be silly to send them back to the US!

Contacted Dave Stoltow at www.car-nection.com/yesteryear as you suggested. He has TS 1074 bulbs in stock. Ordered mine today. Thanks for the reference.

Glad to see that one of my supplier's address was useful! Than man is not the cheapest, but he has good stuff.

Thought I would add from my own experience regarding the TS1074 fog light bulb. If you try to use the cheaper after market bulbs that are advertised on Ebay or sold by Cadillac vendors on line the brighter cp parking light on those repop bulbs in the inner fog light "pods" will not match the stock bulb lower cp used in the outer light "pods" when the lights are in the parking light setting. It just does not look right as all 4 lights should match in brightness. Can only achieve the correct look with the TS 1074 bulb. For some reason the reproduction people did not figure out to match the original  cp ratings for the two filaments.

Probably because that way, they can sell that repro bulb for 1054 and 1074 applications. The 1054 bulb has 2 filaments with the same cp.

I realized that some of the 1074 aftermarket bulbs have a shorter shaft below the circular flange. This can create a problem with the spring contacts in the connector well not reaching the bulb contacts. Also, the intensities don't match. I thought all 1074 bulbs would present the same lumens, apparently not so.

Johnny K.:  Yes, that looks like the bulb.

Looking for a TS 1074
