Do you guys with the clear side markers use clear or amber bulbs? I just got some clear ones and wondered what you guys use because at night I noticed that the clear bulbs and markers are pretty bright, maybe too much. Thanks

 

i use amber 194's to stay legal

 

Thanks, I didn't know that they had to be amber.

 

yea the ones i got from procarparts sent me 2 amber 194 bulbs

 

i wish i got bulbs with mine

 

i put in superwhite bulbs in mine. it looks white, and last i checked white is legal for the front of the car... but it also has a blue tint to it.

 

hah, not in jersey....everything is illegal

 

I'm using the higher intensity 194's from McEwen.

yep, you got that right!!!

 

I'm using the amber 194's.

 

hey ur rules are easy comapared to cali

 

NJ is in a lot of ways is just as bad as Cali, and if it isn't, its certainly on its way there

 

yea and at least i get sun most of the year

 

at least you guys dont have to read about every part that you want to put on your car only to find the small writing that says, "not legal for sale or use in california"

 

I hate Jersey, I won't even take a dump there.

 

procarparts.com wont ship to canada, anyone want to be my middleman?

tyler_h@shaw.ca

 

no please dump all over this place....do it in a town called Wall

 

Nothing personal but everytime I go there I have nothing but bad experiances, the water sucks, getting around there I always get lost, the cops are asses there too much to list...........

 

lol
nothin personal but i hate the city too....hah, i dunno to busy and fast for me

 

im pretty sure that u can use the clear side markers, u just need amber bulbs, cause when theyre on they look amber and clear when off

 

exactly

 

In Texas on the rear of the car turn signals must be red or amber. Brake lights have to be red. Reverse lights have to be white. Most clear tail lights are illegal here because according to DOT no red bulbs have been approved and clear lights don't allow the red to be seen from the required distance.

On the front of the car, turn signals can either be amber or white. However you are not allowed to have blue or red. So the light up winshield washer fluid nozzels aren't legal most of the time. The blue lights need to be made illegal if they aren't already. I find them bright and annoying.

 

In Oregon it is legal to emit white from the front end of a vehicle, however turn signals must be amber. HOWEVER I've had White LEDs for both sides and front for over a year and gotten NO trouble for it It's not hard to check local laws, knowing info like that can dodge a ticket!

 

looks good tpi i was wondering how did u get into the back part of the turn signals cuz i want to vht mine black

 

vht the outside......to get them out:
side...undo clips from the hood
front....unbolt from underneith car

 

why the out side i know for the tail lights u do the inside

 

Because the backside of your tail-lights is your trunk-space/interior, the backside of your front turn-signals is outside of your interior (ie. your engine compartment). You can only access the back of the front turn signals from right underneath them outside.

 

oic

 

u gotta do the outside because i dont think they come apart unless u wanna break it

 

yea def dont want to break it. is it hard to remove them or do i have to vht them when they are on the car

 

It's not that hard, just go for it. There's just two nuts to undo on each one.

 

are tehy torx bits
also if i spray on the vht will it wash off if i drive in the rain like 30 min after i paint it. also how do u get to the taillights from the rear hatch so i can take it off and paint the lights with vht.
will 1 can do all of this for me or should i go buy some more be4 i do it. thanks

 

they're held on by metric bolts, 10 mm i believe not entirely positive. In order to get to the taillights you have to remove the panel on the back portion ofyour trunk in order to access the bolts for the taillights. And yes i'm pretty sure one can should last you for the two front turn signals and taillights

 

sounds like its alot of stuff so the thing where the hatch light is and all the wrap around stuff has to be takin off first. then what do they just pop out

 

Ok dude, it's really not that hard, just dig into it, that's how we all learn, through experience. After you remove the panels in your trunk area there are large plastic wing-nuts holding each tail-light on, like 5 on each.

 

yea but u c if the more i know be4 hand the easier and better it is that way i dont have to learn the hard way which is normally breaking stuff.

 

no in teh trunk you have those interior panels, the one that is furthest back that is on the back wall of the trunk, remove that and behind it will be your access to the taillights. Theres really nothing you could break, its just a matter of unbolting things

 

ok thanks
do u think i could tell some rich kid that its custom and he would believe it and i could get more money off of it or would he/she have to be really gullible

 

well this rich kid would have to have no sense of money to pay more for these nightshaded pieces but if they haev no knowledge of cars (or in general) then i guess it could pass for custom work
