WBT, I respect you cause you question things in a repstectful way, so you good sir get a respectful answer.
you are correct, there are a ton of lights out there, thats not including HID's, and the original rectangular lights, which would take up entirely too much room. They would carry only the mainstream bulbs. 9003-9007, carry two of each that just 10 bulbs. If they feel they would want to, they could also carry H1,H7's, especially since alot of cars are goignthat route of using them. A box of ten brake, or tailllight bulbs is the size of a White Castle Slider ( now im gettign hungry lol) you guys are familiar of blister packs at Auto Zone, Advance auto, here at NAPA, we sell bulbs individually, so they'd carry 2 each of the mainstream bulbs which are 2057, 1156, 1157, 3057,3156,3157,4157,7740,7743, making that 18 bulbs, and 28 bulbs all together. all this would fit in a shoe box and then some with plenty of room left in the box, which I can't see taking up to much room, considering they sometimes carry things like teddy bears for children and what not.
If the person pulled over doesnt know what number the light is ( which 9/10 dont) or they can't find what bulb it is in their owners maual, they don't get a light, if they do, well then kudos to them, fix your car and make it safe again. it's just a jesture out of the goodness of the police dept. and that if they would want to even participate in the campaign.
