Naw at the Chrysler dealership apparently nobody has these light bulb for the promasters except dealers...yeah right of course I didn't buy it

Part #H7. Truck stops have them at some. Walmart advance etc from $8 each to $60 for hi end pair. I ran the ZXE high end and burned drivers side twice. Now have truck stop cheapo and works great.

Most likely just not listed in the parts catalog yet. Just go to an auto parts store with the bulb in hand and ask for a replacement. The bulbs usually have the bulb type/number printed on the plastic part. I really doubt that it's a new special bulb.

Are you already signed up with Landstar? I know they sometimes call carriers direct for loads. I have dealt with one of their brokers out of Colorado a lot for loads out of the Houston area.

We're approved and run a good bit of their freight direct through them or some agents. We're not on a "hey call Crossroads" basis with them but invoice them at least a few times a week for LS and LSE loads.
Some of their agents are quite friendly with us but they are still pretty dollar driven. And we're not usually rock bottom price.
For good reason. 10 reasons to be exact. :)

Thinking about going back to dispatching for a full truck load company out of chicago...It was sweet gig, I worked from the comfort of my own home office @ home a lot of times, as I didn't feel like driving to the office. I had a blast negotiating with these brokers and building relationship with brokers via booking loads, emails, phone calls. I had 6 53' vans 2 48 reefers and 1 53 reefer. That was all I had to worry about is to keep those running for rates that will pay the driver, pay the operating costs on the trucks and make some $ to the company.

..Kind of tired of driving, at least during this winter season, when freight is slow and weather is unpredictable.
