Lights - the final answer!

Okay..okay, so I stole the picture, but it's good for this purpose. Someone or everyone post what kind of lights go with the numbers so EVERYONE can finally understand what goes where if you want to dress up the lighting on your spiffy, new G.

Next to the numbers, put light type, brand, part number, link to store - basically any and all relevant info to help everyone make an informed decision on customizing lights. Put your favorite lighting combination or whatever floats your boat!

I would imagine we are going to get some really good lighting combinations out of this, so get to it!

1. Low Beam: OEM Xenon bulb. No clue about a replacement as most people will leave this one stock.
2. Fog light/High Beam: H4 12v 60/55w
3. Front Turn Signal: I'm 90% sure its a 7440/7443 12v 21w.
4. Side Marker: standard wedge bulb 168 12v 5w for regular bulb. LED replacement does not have a wattage.
5. Clearance Light: standard wedge bulb 168.

Re: Lights - the final answer!

on light 3 (the turn signal) had anyone found out how to take off the amber cover so we can put some white turn signals on.

Re: Lights - the final answer!

That little amber turn signal light really annoys me! If someone knows how to get rid of it please share !

I used PIAA Extreme whites (PIA15260) for my fog lights, PIAA Extreme wedge LED bulbs (White) (PIA19263) for my clearance lights, and I also changed my interior dome lights to PIA19223.

Re: Lights - the final answer!

You are going to have to completely remove the headlight housing, bake it in the oven for five minutes at 250 degrees and break the sealing free. Then you can look to replace the amber cover. Then you would have to seal the headlight again. You would have to seal it perfect or else you will have condensation.

Re: Lights - the final answer!

ok, yes thats my ride... and what you are looking at is

# 1-3 Standard OEM

#4 & # 5 Both have PIAA Xtreme White wedge Bulbs 168.

#5 is "clearance light" and i think it is meant to be like a parking light.

Re: Lights - the final answer!

I call it the coolness light! Especially if you have a blue LED in there. People seemed to be mesmorized by it. At traffic lights people can't stop staring at it. WHen they are crossing in front of me or if they are in the car next to me. The best is when a cop did an extremely slow drive by past me. He was running the red light on purpose but as soon as his eyes focused on the blue light, he stopped the car for a split second then floored it through the intersection. I caught up with him at the next light and he just gave me a "thug nod" before turning on his lights and passing up the stopped traffic.

Re: Lights - the final answer!

Anyone know what clearance light will give a blue tint to it without being full out neon blue? I'm looking for something to fill the whole strip consistently with a HID color to it. Same for the fog/high #2 light.

no, as stated above, it is PIAA Xtreme WHITE bulbs in both #4 and # 5. Thats just how it looks in the clearance light, i think its the lens.
