Which headlight wire for high/low beam

[JoeCB]

Without straying too far from the OP... and thanks "Y" for the filament orientation info. I just purchased and installed 32 - 32 cp bulbs from Snyder. The bulbs I replaced had two identical filaments, kinda' "V" shaped. The new bulbs have one "V" shaped and one transverse linear filament, like one would see in a stop light bulb. So, is this a correct bulb? and if so which filament would be "low" and which "high" ?

32/32 should have identical filaments. You can flip it over if one filament burns out. Longer filament length = higher resistance, lower CP. Does it have a number on it?

Also be sure the wiring is correct at the switch end, off-park-bright-dim-off. Seems out of order, but it isn't. Some miscreant wired mine wrong then soldered the tabs in. So I have to reverse them at the bucket.
