TheMacDaddy Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Should be one of the simplest mods you can think of, but actually is an utter pig thanks to the crazy lengths needed to get at the front and rear light clusters. The fronts require you to take the whole fascia off (which luckily I already had done as I was doing some other jobs), and the rears require you to remove virtually every panel in the boot space. Thanks Nissan! Once we have LEDs everywhere and the damn things last 20 years then by all means seal 'em in but while you still have tungsten bulbs floating around probably a good idea to make them a little more accessible. Ok, rant over, here's some surprisingly underwhelming after-shots: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 careful with them. police are hot on ya heels if they dont indicate orange enough, We found that out on a wales drive. The silvertec one can be dim and pale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The silvertec one can be dim and pale Good to know, thanks. They look pretty good so I think I'll be okay, but definitely worth keeping an eye on.

FUG Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 phillips seem to be bright enough. Or cheaper option for the rear was to spray the bulbs with silver paint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spursmaddave Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 pmsl, you'll miss wheel arch trim rash One of the bolts is in the wheel arch but weirdly it is fully accessible with full lock nothing needs to be removed Let's hope the rest of the bulbs prove as easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
