glrnet Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Guys, I've bought Depo silver crystal clear rear light housing replacements and I need to know where to buy a red fog lamp bulb and new bright amber indicator bulbs, can I go LED without too much bother? Any advice greatly appreciated Quote
sparky370z Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 the fog light u get off of ebay. its an LED one. very bright. the indicator lamps i would get Phillips Silver vision. they are better than the silvatec one that are found in halfrauds. they are quite pricey tho. and not that easy to come by. try auto bulbs direct.com. they are usually very good. if i can find the links i'll post them up a bit later Quote
sparky370z Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 also what have you done with the old lenses? i have "cooked" my driver side one. i would buy it off you. cheers here u go my ol' fruit.

M13KYF Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Thanks Mike out of stock on Autobulbs direct seen them on ebay but a bit expensive compared to Autobulbs Quote
narcotix Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Autobulbs have been out of stock for a few months now ... I'm sure the SilverVision bulbs are now discontinued as well ... Quote
Chris`I Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Sarah (Chilli Red) might have a set? Or JDM Performance do them too IIRC Quote

cesc Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Has anyone tried putting LEDs in for the rear indicator bulbs? I'm aware they have lower resistance so would flash faster, but has someone found a way around it yet? Would be good if they could match the main LED light cluster. Quote
Chris`I Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 LEDs dont look as good as silver indicator bulbs as you can see the LED themselves and whatever they are mounted too. If you get good LED bulbs they should have resistors to compensate for the lowered resistance of LEDs. Quote
cesc Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 I personally am not a fan of the silver bulbs, never have been and probably never will. My old S3 had them in the front and I swapped them for the originals! These 'good LED bulbs' you speak of, where may one find them? Quote
Chris`I Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 I forget the site the guys in the States mention, let me see if I can find it Quote
glrnet Posted February 18, 2011 Author Posted February 18, 2011 Thanks for your help Chris, I tried JDM yesterday they don't have them in stock currently I forget the site the guys in the States mention, let me see if I can find it Quote
Neilp Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Your lights were dropped of yesterday. I will pm the tracking reference to you now Quote
