Various MH replacement bulbs

I just noticed while checking out all the exterior lights one of the side marker lights is out on our less than 1 year old MH. After looking in the manual there is about 11 different bulbs for the exterior and a few for the inside (not including fog,driving & high beams)

So I thought it would be wise to put together a little kit of bulbs in a covered plastic container with compartments. Got that at Harbor Freight for $4. The GE ( or equivalent) bulbs at the auto store would have cost over $100 to purchase there.

So I found 95% of them on Amazon for around $65 delivered. Anyone have a better place to get them? Also there is a GE 194 bulb rear side marker & GE 194A - is there a difference? Can't find the GE 194A.

Thanks

    You may buy bulbs that you never end up using, so half the kit goes to waste. If you are anything like me, I would drop or lose them before I would use a bunch of them.

    I carry replacement headlights, taillights, turn signal and porch light bulbs. The rest will get purchased as I need them.


    I agree. But it wouldn't be the first time we've run in the dark and side marker lamps being out will get you a ticket, and with my luck it would be me. I'd rather have them when needed compared to wishing I did at a inconvenient time. That being said,I suppose I need to get some of the headlamps, fog lamps, and brights.
