Side markers
 

Hi all-

Has anyone replaced the yellow side marker to a clear or super white bulb?

If so, how do you get to it, and what size bulb is it?

Thank you

u need to push from the side towards the front...they pull it from where u started...

bulb size is 194/168....

Great thanks..

Did you replace yours? what brand/type bulb did u use? i want a SUPER WHITE type

try the LED 194/168 bulbs...they are nice... 8)

Yeah i picked me up some today it looks clean

Thanks

which one u got? single led type or the one with 4 leds? :twisted: got any pic?

The single type. Its a super-white LED.
I will try to take pics tomorrow.

did you ever take pics of these in action? sorry to bother im just curious

i got another question about the side markers: As you guys know, the side marker only turns on while signaling, but i was wondering how to have those markers turn on while the headlights/rear lights are on, so ALL the lights are on. I'm not really that good w/ wiring but i'm down to learn how to do it. If you guys happen to know, that'd be dope.

no i did not...
actually i removed them because it was a light blue color and it does not match the theme of my rear yellows and my front yellow blinker. Although my bulb in the front is a Chromax yellow.

Anyone interested i bought the set for $12 and am willing to sell them for $8
i am in the Southbay area near Torrance

they are LED clear bulb with a hint of blue when lit (looks cool) but not for me i am sick of blue themes :D

Get yourself a TEST LIGHT and ground the end.
Remove the side marker and turn on your blinker.
Touch one wire with the other end of the test light, then the other wire. (to the inside conductor)
Whichever wire turns on the test light, that is your wire you need.
Cut that wire and (the wire coming from the bulb) run an extension and splice it to your parking light wire (you need to do a similiar test here)
Keep in mind that the side marker will not blink anymore because it is a single filiment bulb.
ON a side note, you will be changing the resistance of the circuit so your blinker might blink faster.

what kind of theme are going for? And what color did you origninall want?

I meant I want all yellow when lights are on.. Since my parking lights are not blue tint.

My yellow chromax bulbs in my parking lights do not match the side marker bulbs I bought (pick above). So i replaced the side marker bulb with stock.

Have you gone to RAZO in milpitas? They have a LOT of JDM lights you can pick from. Check it out, they are located on Barber lane next to Billings chevrolet. PM me and I will give you the number

No i never been. I live in Torrance near L.A.

why does your location say south bay, cali? South bay is san jose area. the silicon valley, south of the San fransico bay. San Jose. threw me a curve ball there, I thought you were from the area. :(

south bay in socal refers to areas around soutgte carson etc, just a nickname for an area, like we also have a los altos in long beach....

Hey stylis, Sorry about that.

But down here we call it "The South Bay" Manhattan, Hermosa, Redondo Beaches and Torrance, Palos Verdes.

We call S.F and San Jose The Bay Area..

Maybe I should change it..
