Busting out the Dremel - New Clear Side Lenses

[G20 SpoRt 2002]

lol thats cool... You made little arrows lol... Yea I tried all kinda of stuff to break it I guess ima need a dremel..

a standard drill would work, you just need a long drill bit, say 1/8" or so to drill thru the plastic. Dont forget those needle nose pliers, they definately come in handy. Id say invest in a dremel, it will make your life so much easier, besides you can cut the heads off of nails like they do in the commercial...

Yah, what kind of bulb do you have for the repeater? Is it the stock one? I don't think keeping the repeater bulb flashing white would be a problem for me, as long as the corners and tailights flash amber. I personally like the white flash on the repeater .

Im keeping my origional bulbs in there, they flash a nice white. Im looking at getting some PIAA's in there and in the front corners. So far no problems with the police, and Ive been right up next to them with the flashes too.

I havent cleared out the amber in the rears, and I dont plan to either. Im not sure on the laws out here in NM but Im pretty sure its not a good thing.

When you get some PIAA's in the repeaters and front, do let me know what type you got and if you're happy with them.

So then if the front flashes white and the repeaters it's OK? But if the back doesn't, then it's not. I would think it doesn't matter, that any white flashing would be illegal.

I have the Phillips Silvervision bulbs in the front - which flash amber and are coated with silver - so you can't see that there's even a bulb in there. I'll have to look for somethin for the back though, thanks

I dont know if its illegal or not for the front and side, but the back, in my opinion, is a different story. Amber is one of the "safest" colors for turn signals, thats why the are in all corners. It is considered to be a "more noticeable" color.

How do you like those Silvervisions? I was looking at those but really didnt do the research. Where did you get them and what size? Just curious.

Yea I want to the put the PIAAS in the repeater too and in the parking lights so they can match my headlights.. I tried breaking it today and I didnt have any luck...

G20: I say if you have some extra change hanging around, go out and get the DREMEL tool - otherwise I don't know what other type of advice I have to offer in respect to clearing out your repeaters. I think you can buy it seperately - if you can, pick up some drill bits as well.

YAH: I'm sure it is illegal to have a white light flashing back there. It's not that I'm afraid of having trouble with the police, it's more of a safety issue for myself. I don't want to get into an accident that is caused by white blinkers and then end up being at fault for it and having my insurance skyrocket.

The Phillips Silvervision bulbs are really nice - they are powerful and very orange looking. I read up on the bulbs here;

I then went to powerbulbs.com and ordered them from there. You just have to cut off one of the notches and they fit perfectly.

Atomic: thanks for the info, it helps. Ill probably get a set of the phillips and try them out instead. Might want to relay that link to Bo-ogie for the FAQ section.

Yo G20 sport, i found that if u make only a few holes with the dremel and then take a falt head screw driver and pry away at the sides of that orange stuff (those 2 lil things on the sides) get them to bend towards the center then take needle nose pliers and pull it out with some force they will come out rather easily :flash: :sun:

[G20 SpoRt 2002]

Yea dude, I did it today like an hour ago... I used my friends took it wasnt a dremel but it was something like it and I got it to work, it looks good but I need to put some nice bulbs in there.. Thanks!

Can you get these clear light for P10s aswell?? Any idea where I could get some, Im from New Zealand. Im also interested in some clear tail lights, any info would be great

[Koojo]

do they sell these types of bulbs in orange color? then I could just paint them with the metallic paint to make the look silver.
