Re: headlight bonanza!

those are nice but if someone wants to do it differently they have to DIY such as keeping the amber or painting the parking light.

Re: headlight bonanza!

Yeah I ended up buying the password jdm gunmetal headlights because I screwed up trying to paint the headlight. It looked all jacked up. I think it's better just to buy the premade ones.

I don't mean to thread jack you gearbox, but I just wanted to give you guys a preview of my retrofit with e46/password jdm headlights that should be coming in anyday now from customlightz.

Re: headlight bonanza!

the only place ive seen 7443 real amber glass bulbs that dont fade is from ebay seller autopartshouse. i bought a whole bunch and they work gret even with my turn signal drl on all the time they havent peeled or faded. and the turn signal filament is actually 25w not 21w so its a tad brighter! low filament is still 5w.
