| Yes a 1n4001 will work fine. Any thing between and including 4001 and 4007. |

I also have another question for the same car, its a 96 eclipse. I did a taillight conversion which doesn't require all the taillight bulbs, I have heard you can stick a resistor in the bulb socket to prevent the rapid light flash that a bulb is out. Is this true? If so, what resistor would I need per side? Thanks. ___________________________________ |

| 6 ohm 50 watt. you could go slightly less wattage (35?) if the signals and hazards are used infrequently. mounting the resistors to metal..aluminum? for a heat sink wouldn't hurt either. if the flasher is a two wire type, you could also get a flasher that isn't load dependent, may require an additional ground wire. |

Okay, thanks for the help and I just ordered the diodes online from HongKong... $0.99 for 25 pieces but it takes like a month to get here. Good thing I am not in a hurry. Going to start the fiberglassing of everything. ___________________________________ |
