I thought we need a 7440 socket and bulb instead of 7443. 'cause we already have a 7443 socket w/ double filament bulb. and i think the bulb we suppose to put in should be a single filament since there is only 1 watt rating under it.
and, i just got a pair of 04 tail lights for my 02 civic coupe today. so i want some come clarification please. ^_^
is Socket number 33304-S30-003 socket 7440 or 7443?
socket 7440 on the 04 tail is located in the lower outside corner. is that the one you were doing conversion on?
1. Yes, we need 7443 double filament bulb for the new socket (T20). I tried 7440 and it won't light up. However, the single filament 3156 (old turning light bulb on 02 tail) lighted up....that's why I though i need 7440....
2. Yes, its the one on the lower outside on 04 tail...and the one with the biggest socket on our 02.
hehehe, thanx for the replies! Tomorrow, I'll get my taillight from UPS....and then, I'll post my full 04 tail conversion DIY here... =)
