Dash lights

Been a productive day. The rear spring is out. The rear shocks are off and removed the shifter to complete the rebuild.

While I was under the dash I saw that the lamp sockets for the center dash are just hanging there with no bulbs.

What size are the bulbs. Also what are the 2 red lamps in the center dash for.

Always helps if you mention what car and year you're working on, Don.

Since a TR3A has only one red lamp in the center dash, I assume you're asking about a Spit; which means I don't know.

I can't help on bulb size, but one of those red lights is for BRAKE (failure), the other is for HAZARD (flasher). They normally are labeled as such; perhaps the lettering wore off, or the dash has been refinished?
