>>didn't wait for them to dry, I take the highway to work so the wind should dry 'em...haha
no amber bulbs...pure Xenon blue all around...looks excellent...plus I changed the 7443 bulbs to 7440 bulbs so they only are seen when I'm making a turn...

Rep Power: 0 Hey Machina, congratulations man.... well worth it isn't it? I couldn't reach your area today cause it's my girl's birthday today. I didn't realize it was on a Sunday. Oh well, glad to hear it's done and nothing went wrong.

>>What's the difference between those two bulbs? 7440 does not light up at all when you're not signalling?

Rep Power: 0 the 7440s don't light up when you turn your headlights on at night...they only blink when turn signal is engaged...looks so sick at night....

Rep Power: 0 Reeeeeally........hmmmmmmmmmmm.......
This would be good with my projo headlamps..... cause I wanted to disconnect my parking light, and with 7440s, all i would get is just a big round projector light beam, without other little circles... sweet...
I wonder how safe it would be though, since our turning signals double as the front bumper side lights (so people can see your car pull out in dark)..hmmmm...
Cool factor vs Safety factor... ........ . . gonna hafta sleep on that

ours tails have side lights so if someone hits us they're still screwed, plus, you could just pop in the 7443s before the court date...
but I don't plan on gettin hit by some novice driver...I've dodged so many crappy drivers before it's like 2nd nature...[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 Good job on clearing the headlights machina, I also did my this weekend. It wasn't that hard, I just have to get my bulbs now? Did you get em at crappy tire? I'm thinking of going either blue bulbs or super white. Its the 7443 that I have to get, right?
Hey, did you get a chance to do your upper/lower grills?

Rep Power: 0 at crappy tire they carry APC bulbs that IMO might fade after awhile...go for Xenon blue bulbs, either 7443 or 7440...your call on how you want your heads to look at night...
they can get the Xenons at Mr. Stereo...just go to the front desk and price them...if they tell you more than $6 each, tell them a friend sent you down here and got them for $6 each...
