guys be calm.
Just FYI:
side marker light bulb 194,
turn signal light bulb 3156,
brake/taillaight bulb 7443,
back-up light bulb 921.
Thats for 2003 model as far as I looked at my tail bulbs.
Now how about 2004?

Hey jackass, did I not mention thru and thru that I never PURCHASED the turn signal socket? I'm going off memory from the one time I actually looked at the back of the taillights. For the three months I had the taillights on the car, I never had turn signals in the rear. Which isn't really safe, but for two of those months, my car was in the shop getting the transmission fixed.
Good for you what you did, I did what I did and I was the first to have it done. When I first posted this message, I explained exactly what I knew you had to do. Do you not see the pictures of them on my car? How can it be "hard for [you] to believe that [I] got this conversion done but don't know anything about the DIY" when there are fricken' pictures. Idiot.
I don't see how people are having such a hard time finding this socket. I found it easily. The day I put the taillights in, I walked over to parts, had them pull the taillights up on the computer, and looked at the diagram with them and pointed out the part I needed...The SOCKET FOR THE TURN SIGNAL BULB. It's really not that hard. Good things can happen when you put your mind to things, genx. Try it sometime.

Shouldn't that be obvious? I even pm you about before. I didn't know you never put in the turn signals in because you always sounded like you were so sure how it could be done. Also you can't just put in a socket. The hole is too small so you would have to do some cutting to make it bigger if you were to get a 7443 socket for it.

Rep Power: 0 I'm saying, you need a whole new socket to hold the bulb in. The socket is what will fit in. It's a different bulb type, I just got the bulb number wrong. And I do not know the part number. I ordered from looking at a diagram but never picked up the part...Sorry about the confusion.

Rep Power: 0 Look at www.hondaautomotiveparts.com, they are selling the lights for 84.99 each and harness(if you need) for 33 something. Shipping is not that bad there, and, of course, no tax.

Rep Power: 0 But still better than buying from dealer. I went to the dealer and the price is 125 each and 55 for harness in south Austin, TX. That dealer sucks, even the service department.

Rep Power: 0 My auction's over with no bids, looks like I was asking too much. I'll sell my '04 tails to the first person who emails me at ars02h@garnet.acns.fsu.edu for $160 insured and shipped anywhere in the continental US. Again, these are like new, and the price includes shipping. I'll post on this thread when they're sold.

Rep Power: 0 I see the part number for the lights on Majestic Honda's site (hondaautomotiveparts.com) but don't see which harness we would need?
Anyone?

Not really. You look at them in person and they're a lot more 3dimensional. They really are very sharp-looking.

I couldn't believe the difference between 01-03 and the 04s...so much cleaner and brighter looking!

Rep Power: 0 Well I have installed the 04's but one question remains...
The 04 turn signal light will not fit. Can I buy the 04 bulb and put it in the slot? Or do I have to buy an 04 wireing harness. If someone works at Honda please let me know if you have any info...
