bulb replacements

[Vehi-Cross-Az]

I spent about an hour today bulb swapping today.
In the back for now I did some small Spyderlite bulbs
for the Red parking and brakelites.

For the front, in the lower orange blinkers I installed
some 1156 Orange LED bulbs
and in the Clear Round lower running lights, I installed
some Orange 194 LED bulbs there too.
All the front matches orange now which I like.

And I installed a set of HID headlights too in the headlights.
Much more lite now too.

Never thought about orange in the round fogs. Nice work, how about a pic of the rear.

looks nice ive got orange malibu bulbs for my fogs in case of really bad weather.. but 99.9% of the time ive got piaa W2s in there

I did the orange in the round bumper lites just because
the clear sort of looked yellow-ish and dingy.
They use std 194 style bulbs too.

Heres a pic of the Spyderbulbs
We stock them out my shop usually. I just grabbed the
last 2 we had in stock for now but will be getting more in
down the rd.
We sell them for like $40-45 each, yeah :o

Are you having to put anything on the circuit for the signals so the unit doesn't compensate for the change in load? Or did you replace the sending unit, or do these bulbs already have some resistence built in?

--JohnI think spyderlites make a dummy load resistor for the turn signals....like 15 bucks. I put a set in the rear of the Lightning a year or so ago. Reasonable price, snap installation, still working fine...good product. Can't remember if they came from "Stylin' Concepts.com" or Autoanything. Local speed shop sells them, but they're a third cheaper online

With the spyderlites nothing had to be added
when I put the 1156 Orange LEDs in the front blinkers though,
it did speed up my blinker flashing to what I call "double speed"
Something to do with less resistance I believe, cant remember.
But I like it like that, just another way to be different and keep it
legal. We match anyone elses prices on the bulbs btw. :smilewink

Like I said....they sell a dummy load resistor so it will blink normally,,,,you don't need it, but it is available

I know
but I like the fast blinker situation
hopefully it will wake up any drivers who are half
asleep while driving :eek:

What HID's did you install in the headlights?

[nfpgasmask]

Looks good. What kind/where did you get/how much did they cost HID lights do you have in there. I think its time for me to upgrade.

Its a brand from Japan we sell
comes with a one yr warranty
I suggest 4300k for more lite and less blue
we sell them for $180 for the single filiment
and $225 for the dual hi/lo kits.

Where do you get the flashing thing for the 3rd
brakelite ?
