which would look better on what? the license plate light? keep it stock. i just got pulled over and ticketed for having a blue LED on there. looked cool, but illegal. ON THE FIRST NIGHT, i might add. youre gonna need twist -in bulbs of the part # 1157 or something similar for teh tails and front turn sigs. that is a bulb thast is used for many places in your car. i got blue front turn sigs. they look realllll cool. not illegal here either. they just gotta be bright enough. anymore questions bout lighting just ask..

ok...so i look really closely and there is 4 bulbs in the OEM headlight. High Beam, Low Beam, Signal Light and one is where the amber strip is on the bottom. What is the one where the amber strip is called and what kind of bulb is that? I looked at it and it looked pretty hard to remove. Can anyone tell me how to remove that?? Thanks

you remove it by simply going down there with your hand and feeling around abit until you find a twist plug. find it, then just twist it like a 1/4 rotation til it pops out, and it a small wedge bulb, and can be replaced with an LED, but will not be visible because of that ugly amber strip. you gotta remove the entire headlight to get it out, so i suggest just taking the bulb out and leaving it out. look$ better.
