INTRODUCTION

In the event of a customer concern regarding insects found inside the rear combination lamps, a countermeasure lamp assembly is now available to prevent the intrusion.  The new combination lamps have an additional lip molded around the three bulb socket areas which decreases the gap between the socket and the housing from 2mm to 0.5mm.

 

COUNTERMEASURE IN PRODUCTION

The countermeasure combination lamps were incorporated into production 6/20/2013.  Reference illustrations below show the difference between the old and new style combination lamps.
