This is the specially made Resistor Bulb which was a factory option on very few G body cars. It replaces the standard bulb and socket used on the "Volts" indicator. Here is what it does: If your bulb should burn out, your alternator won't charge. Call a flat-bed....Battery dies, car stops- many of you have had this happen. Replace alternator, battery, cables, only to find out a bad bulb was the culprit.
So, what GM did is create this special socket that incorporates a resistor, so that if the bulb quits working (which is a common problem), the alternator still charges, as the field is energized via the resistor. This provides a safeguard for your turbo Regal, and will function even if the bulb fails. Fits in place of the original twist-lock lamp socket on your dash cluster.
Cheap insurance, and if you ever had your lamp fail, you would wish you had it.
