PIAA xtreme white

Im sorry for being a newb about this, but i was wondering if the installation of these lights are hard for the clear corners and the license plate. Because i have absolutely no skills at all as to how to wire things and if this is just a simple exchanging light bulbs than ill get it, if not then i would need to know how hard it is to install before i purchse it. Please let me know how to install them and if its hard or not. THank You.

Clear corners, you literally just pop them out and pop them in. The marker lights take a little more work, but not much.

Re: PIAA xtreme white

That looks like the right one. I ordered from here, it's a bit cheaper.

I also replaced the fog/high beams with these.

Re: PIAA xtreme white

The ones that I posted are the ones that I am using. They match really well and I'm really happy with them.

I don't care for how directional the LEDs are. If I remember right the super plasma gt-x looked purple to me.

No wiring, they just pop in and out. You'll need 2 packs if you want to do the rear license plates though 1 for the corners 1 for the plates.

Re: PIAA xtreme white

Alright from what i heard the installation is easy, and simple. Do u guys know what the installation involves if there is no wiring? Is it just merely switching one light bulb to the other light bulb?

Re: PIAA xtreme white

Heres a shot of my car with the Piaa Extreme whites in both clear corner and clearance strip, and my MTEC H4 Super White fog/high bulbs......

The owners manual explains how to change the bulb on the corner markers.....Its very easy and the clearance strip bulb comes out the same way, however, It requires a little more work....if you change them, might as well do the fog/high bulbs while your at it.....
look here this will give you the information to change the clearance bulbs and fog/highs.......

Re: PIAA xtreme white

How do you avoid touching the bulb with your hand when removing it or putting it in. It's held in pretty tight and requires some force to put in. Am I missing something that allows it to easily pop out?
