I decided to do a little write-up on the cab lights. I wanted to make sure they were going to work from the git-go, so I disassembled and cleaned them good inside and out. I removed the wire pigtails (because I was going to replace them) and cleaned the inside of the sockets. Some of them had a little corrosion inside so I used a battery terminal brush to remove the bad stuff. I think a brush for cleaning the inside of copper tubing for plumbing or a gun cleaning bore brush would work good too. I know they make brushes specifically for the bulb sockets but they tend to be a little pricey and I had the battery terminal brush.
Below is a pictiure of the pigtails I bought. They look a little light weight but they worked good.
I bought the FRYIC racheting double terminal crimper and after a little practice it works really well to crimp the terminals on the new pigtails.

I also included a picture of the card from the bulb package. You can probably tell I have had these for a while....
.. I actually bought them at a swap meet.
