You are correct, you must be careful when purchasing replacement 7440 bulbs, some may not have that locking tab and will not work for our Camaros.

I recently purchased these from Amazon. You can barely see the locking tab on the bulb base, but it is there and it works. These bulbs have worked fine and no external resistors needed. Made in China. If these don't hold up, I will install DD bulbs and resistors.
