Litronics and Euro rear lights done!!

I just got my euro tail lights and litronics installed, make the car so much nicer and newer. I tested everything works great, my lights needs to be re aimed, I was not sure if it's aimed at the factory when it was shipped. I didn't wire int he red and blk wire, I think this is for the head light washers will it cause any problems if I didn't hook this line up? The HID lights up with no problems, so I think it's for the washer. I want to replace the little bulb that is on when the light is on, I believe it's called the city light very small and dim, does anyone know what size bulbs they are? Thanks again

pics please

Eddie, The city light bulbs are H6W. Try the Philips BlueVision H6W (you can get some from www.ambulbs.com) . I found the H�en H6W bulbs are the closest color match to the Xenons (Litronics) but they burn out very quickly -- both of mine burned out in 2 months. The Philips are a pretty close match and last forever (like OEM). Cheers,

eddie, You are a brave man. The bumperettes have saved my a$$, pun intended, too many times to contemplate. Do you mind if I ask where you live? Is it an urban environment, or more rural? I am sure it looks great. TD

Has anyone bought those silvered turn signal bulbs?

Been there, done that . . . works as advertised. Look down

TD, Can't tell from the pic...you have the PY21W's in silver in the front?

Lee, Yuppers. Actually, you can see it. Notice that my lights are off (when they are on, the bulb appears to be orange just like stock). The silver bulb actually is picking up the light and reflecting out from behind the blinker. See the little shiny spot? That is the silver bulb. TD

I didn't follow your message, I am brave? I am in Washington State Programmatore: I will try the phillips, there are also some newer clear but lights up amber made with LED they are super bright I will have pictures up soon, Thnaks again guys

Yes, you are brave , but not as brave in Washington state as I would be to follow your lead in Washington DC. My meaning is this: the bumperettes are very useful in preventing damage from low speed impacts, AND, they can be removed, resprayed, and replaced if they are damaged. In an urban environment like DC, you are going to take some taps to the car no matter how hard you try not to. The bumperettes have a way of isolating the contact to the bumperettes themselves as opposed to all across the bumper. I would be afraid that I would have little dings across the entire bumper if I deleted the bumperettes, which would be deadly in DC. There is an unwritten code here (don't shoot the messenger). If you are driving a new car or a car with no dings on the bumper, people will try very hard not to bump your car. As soon as you have one visible ding, scratch, whatever, your bumper is fair game and the "bump mode" of parking will be used next to your car. I guess the reasoning is that nobody wants to be the first to ding a car, but once it is screwed up they feel no guilt whatsoever adding more damage. For this reason, if I notice anything on any of the bumpers on any of my cars, I repair it immediately! Now, I imagine Washington state is a much more civil place, so maybe you are not as brave as I thought

TD, I think you mis-read Eddie's post. He put on Euro tail lights (i.e. some 99's had amber indicators in the tail lights and he replaced them with clears). He didn't replace his rear bumper with a Euro bumper.

You are right! I am obviously reading challenged. I take it back Eddie. You ain't brave at all

Hehehe I am not brave at all, you got me going there for a min. I was so worried about the red/blk wire that I didn't connect TIA

Just order a set of Narva H6W blue for the city light, I will get some pictures when I install it TIA
