I now notice there is a difference in the two front flasher bulb 
holders from the two rear flasher bulb holders.  From the side, it can 
be seen, that one type is longer than the other.  Trouble is, I DON'T 
KNOW IF THE LONGER ONE GOES UP FRONT OR IN THE REAR?  The aftermarket 
vendor I bought them from didn't say.  Can you help me?

Also, Moss show they use different bulbs, however, both flashers show 
they take dual-filament bulbs.  However, I've already found out that a 
single filament bulb will work in a dual filament bulb holder.   It 
will twist-in and stay down too.  I've already bought the wrong kind of 
bulb for it!!

Paul, both front and rear flasher lamp assemblies should APPEAR to be 
the same. I say APPEAR because both are (or should be) Lucas L594 
units. The only difference is that the front ones take dual-filament 
bulbs since they act as both "side" and "flasher" lamps, while the rear 
ones originally were single-filament since they were only "flasher" 
lamps.
