More part numbers - just in case

Not having any issues with these things, but thinking about things I have read others having problems with, I thought I'd call TBMS and ask for parts availability.

I got the impression that they do not stock parts, as they gave me parts numbers and told me they were available locally and online.

Thermal switch for the radiator fan: 11205-VUR

Brake switch: F87B-13480-AB

Fog lamp bulbs: PL-2038W

I'm trying to read and research old posts and harvest parts numbers, but it is slow going.

Wonder if the moderator would consider a sticky with messages with parts numbers and sources only?

I know there are 2 or 3 stickies that could already contain parts info in amongst all the off topic ramblings (not meaning to offend anyone, I learn from the ramblings, too). I just think it would be nice to have a resource for parts and numbers only.

If 2 people posted conflicting info, it would be up to the reader to call TBMS for clarification or ferret out the info correct for their model year on their own (maybe by contacting the poster privately and asking questions)...if there were a page and a half of back and forth comments about it, then the part numbers get lost in the noise.

Just my 2 cents (that and $5 will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks).

Thanks for your research, I log in all part numbers that I come across. That part number for the brake switch is the standard Ranger brake switch. TBMS came out with an updated waterproof switch a few years back. They sent me one and it came with a different plug than the oem plug. I had to cut the old plug off from the harness and solder this one in. Have not had any more brake light problems. Now, the oem fog light takes a standard H-1 bulb which requires the ground to be soldered in. There are much better lights out there which will fit in the same slot. I have an LED one I purchased from superbrightleds.com. It really gets out there. Thanks for your efforts.
