wussup.... welcome to the board..... vancouver wa or canada by the way....... maybe someday you can make a road trip to one of our meets since we are just like 2 hrs south of you or so!!

 

[joka1]

now i feel dumb since i just read where this is posted.........

 

[Kizmet]

Yeah dat be Vancouver Canada!

 

[joka1]

i reaLized that....... so what do you plan to do to your p5????

 

[Kizmet]

Thats why I am here! I need some help. So far ive just dont some cosmetic changes. Tint, clear lights in the fender signals.

I was wondering if anyone knew where i could get some bulbs for the front head light turn signal. I want it to be clear when on but then go amber when signaling! Ever seen this?

[joka1]

no..... there is only one bulb in that housing...... i changed mine to clear and when they are on they have a orangish/dull tin but when they blink they are bright white!!

Hi Kizmet,

I should be a new member soon myself. I have just sold my old car (94 ProbeGT) and I am looking for a Protege5 to fill its spot, hopefully by this weekend.

Have you found the lights for your turn signals yet? If not may I suggest trying Beamriders (Surrey and Burnaby) they seem to have a lot of stuff like that. Just a suggestion.

 

[joka1]

due to the voltage they will be clear when the turn signals are on but when they are just driving lights they will have an orange/yellow tint!!!! i will take pics to prove it if you want!!

 

[Kizmet]

Yeah I just changed mine and thats what has happened, light tint to them until i switch on the turn signal...still im happy with the result.

i am looking into led's now to try to make the white all the time!!

 

[Kizmet]

let me know what you fine. I changed all the lights in front and i have to say that it looks sweet. put piaa's in the signals and extreme whites in the fogs. right now im expirementing with some cheap lights in the headlights but its awesome at night. Plus the turn signals in the fenders are piaa whites. now to change that dam orange driving light in the front bumper!

 

[joka1]

ya i put white ones there..... i changed all my bulbs..... just can't get rid of the orange tint on the driving lights..... i am going led to try now!!
