A friend has a 36 packard, it came with every type of taillight bulb--- several types led, halogen, regular, all were dim, tested the voltage at the socket and was only 4.5 volts--- kept working my way back and found the voltage loss, the nuts on the ammeter were rusty, once the nuts were replace it didn't matter, all the bulbs burned bright. The previous owner had even replaced the wiring harnesses for this problem

I can't comment on anything "macs", I haven't bought anything there for over 30 years, and that got sent back--- don't know what it is like now
