 Left Side..  Right Side..  Sexy lamps, I was gonna sleep with'em but I'm afraid breaking'em so forget it...  3 scews holding the lamp in place, socket 10.  Passenger side is on, time for the driver side one.  But we were STUPID enough to screw the OLD ONE back on... me and my friend had some embarrassing laugh at our stupid selves....  TAH DAHH!!!!! The reverse lights are BRIGHT! Damn I love this sh!t!!!  Just a quick night pic.

I donno... it plugs straight in. I didn't do no mod. Maybe the last owner modded it...

if you have a set of nut drivers you can use them instead of an open end wrench and then you can just pop the caps off

[right][snapback]272252[/snapback][/right] I think it is just a short circuit with rear anti-fog lamps - I have those tails straight from Toyota and the outer are stops, inner are antifog.

I'm leaving the amber in there until I get sick of this lights ahahah..
 Plus, I'm not sure how to remove it. I remember I saw an article that you have to cook the light in the oven and then pry the orange out or something. I forgot what the link is. -------------------- |

For the Orange bit.
Well there are 2 ways i have seen. Oven methode Keep it in the oven @ a certain amount of degrees then u can pop the glass off and remove the orange bit. Soldering methode/Dremel Use a soldering Iron or Dremel to cut out a big piece of plastic from below take out orange piece then use silicon to put the parts back together. -------------------- JDM Powerplant installed, BPU coming very soon!
