92-95 JDM Climate control bulbs
 
so I bought the whole unit used (obviously)

took off the face plate to install it, but the guy I bought it from ripped me off and took the bulbs.

do we have the same bulbs ? we have blue condoms on them, they do not, but are these bulbs white ? or amber ?

I'm pretty sure the plastic faceplate makes it light up amber. but I want to make sure before I install this, because our climate control is SUCH a PITA to remove.

thanks

You can shine a flashlight on the clear part in the back of the faceplate, then look at the front and see what color it is.

I have a feeling you may need amber bulbs. I'm not sure though, hopefully someone with JDM climate control experience will chime in.

Yes, the climate control is a PITA to remove. I unscrewed mine, but my hands are too big to pull the wire plugs from the back. How did you remove yours? If I remove the top vents where the clock is, will I have better access to the plugs?

The bulbs have an amber condom. You can order 99-00 Si climate control bulbs (with amber condom) and swap them into your climate control.

I don't think they have amber condoms in japan

Oh you'd be surprised.

When I was in Japan my friend showed me this store in Tokyo called "condomania" (obviously a pun on "condom" and "condo"). It was like a whole store of all sorts of condoms - not sex toys either, just condoms. I really had no idea there was that many. It's amazing. Maybe I'll post some pictures if I get around to it - have to go through 700 Japan photos to find them https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emsad.gif.

Funny shit. Though anyways, Japan DEFINITELY has amber condoms. Shit, man, they had root beer condoms on lolly pop sticks.

As far as lights go....

Shine a light through them. The USDM bulbs had a blue condom cover on the OEM bulbs. I use "red" bulbs from http://www.autolumination.com and they look like the JDM ones. I'm not sure what the JDM had cover wise on the bulbs but just shine a light through them. It either won't change, or it'll appear to be glowing orange https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...s/emsmileo.gif.

Hope that helps.

They do. My climate control had amber condoms.

I did shine some light trough it, I think it's too bright,

it kinda looks amber, but mostly white,
maybe it's just too bright, I need to try it with a battery powered bulb or something.

no one can confirm this ? someone who opened one before can tell me if the bulbs are amber or not.
