Well I just took a looks and I say you have that extra 3/4". I shined a bright flashlight in there and the bulb looks recessed from the rear lense fairly good. And there probably is a buffer as you would not like a warm incandescent too close to the plastic to heat it and deform it over time. I will be watching this as well.

Lots of detailed pics here. Maybe ask a question of the seller for a quick measurement?

As I understand it this LED is a duel function LED, it is a running light hen when the brake is applied it goes super bright with a three flash blink and we would need two of them as there are two 7443 duel function run/brake light bulbs in the F6B?
Another ? as we all know most lighting systems require an LED compatible Flasher or Load Resistor(My Rune has a LED flasher). LED brake/tail lamps may not flash with most stock flasher units, is this going to be an issue too?

This appears to be an internal electronically controlled LED lamp system Apply 12V and the on board electronics tells the LED to flash then go solid. Having a load resistor installed in turn signal flashing circuit typically is required for a self cancelling system or a mechanical relay which cannot sense enough current draw from an LED to engage the relay contact correctly. Then you have the flashing at 3 or 4 times the normal rate.
A braking/tail light system will have a singular ground and two voltage inputs. One is on all the time for the running/tail lamp filament, then a second voltage input when brakes are applied that will cause a second filament to illuminate.
Here is the 7443 dual filament bulb.

I say it will be plug and play.

Using a bulb like that will not shin the best I have tried ones like that looks bright and night shinning on the ground but it doesn't use the reflecter so it looks really small at the lense
I know a guy who has 10 rear lights NIB...so if you damage one they are easy to replace...

That's a pretty long bulb so I'm not at all sure there is room in there for that . Other than that, my concern would be how this bulb can utilize the reflector. It appears the bulb mainly projects forward but it's hard to tell. If that's the case, I would not consider it. Also, it's a very low efficacy bulb so don't expect a lot of brightness. And finally, it's an expensive bulb. Frankly, I probably wouldn't go for it but I could be wrong and I wish you luck if you do. Let us know!

The worst is a red led shining behind a red lense. Probably will not be the brightest. I expect one of you rich folk to bite the bullet for a welfare prince like myself. Please report your findings.
