Tail lights and backup lighting
I bought a set of the tail light seals from Southern auto parts, and I thought this would be a great time to relace the light back there. I was hoping there were better, or brighter lights available, but all I've been able to find is original bulbs. My question is that the owners manual states that the rear tail lights are
* 3057LL for the tail lights but since there is two, Does each take a 3057LL or is there a different bulb for the two inner lights?
Also, The "back up" lights are 2057 and I assume that is one for each side?
And the head lights are High-Beam is a 9005 bulb
and a 9006 for low bear?
Again I assume that's one for each side. I'm trying to get better/brighter lighting using the stock wiring setup.
I was looking around on the internet and found a lighting site called Piaa company that makes automotive, but all the number there-in are all different from the stock number. I was hoping to find a brighter bulbs to go all-round, but I can't understand the numbers.
If anyone can help me out I really appreciate it, Thanks !

Only help I can offer is, I had my tail lights apart when I tinted them, and yep, each of the four tail lights use the 3057LL, well, that's whats in mine, and I didn't change any of them. Back up lights are the same number you quote, one, each side.
