looking at bulbs, can someone help verify

Manual says the tail lamp (lower lamp) is 3 candle power:

#63
base: Ba15s
Volt: 7.0
Amp: 0.63
Watt: 4.41
Candle Power: 3
Life: 1000 hours

then the STOP lamp (upper lamp) is a 15 candle power

#87
base: Ba15s
Volt: 6.8
Amp: 1.91
Watt: 12.98
Candle Power: 15
Life: 300 hours

i went with these bulbs based on my notes and research :)

actually got my Original Stop/Tail lamp built and almost ready for Install !! just need to mount it and test it.

here are a the [pictures of the assembly, i bought the lens mounting kit for the clear lens. i also cleaned up the copper bars/strips, housing, etc to ensure a good clean ground and contact.

Tail Light Lens

did a light CHECK as well to ensure the lights worked and there were NO issues at this point... everything worked like a charm :)

i used a set of clips and connected ground to the mounting bolt, then touched the positive to one of hte two points inside the bayonet connector.
