TITLE: FMVSS INTERPRETATION

TEXT: Thank you for your letter of February 21, 1968, to Mr. J. E. Leysath of this Bureau, concerning the use of tubular type bulbs in license plate lamps.

Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108 requires that license plate lamps conform to Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Standard J587b. SAE J587b in turn requires that bulbs and bulb sockets conform to SAE Standards J573b and J567b, respectively. Since tubular type bulbs and sockets for these bulbs do not conform to these SAE Standards, their use in license plate lamps would not be permitted under the requirements of Standard No. 108.

Thank you for writing.
