Hatch It

I found these, they seem pretty straight foward and simple, but will they work??? There for 9003 bulbs so i think maybe....add some amber bulbs and your set

They've been posted on here before and seem to work. I think the others were LEDs and in turn would just be a very small concentrated area of light. Those appear to work a little better possiby.

I think the output is a little bit overrated on what it puts out. I doubt they will work as well as advertised.

I had city lights in 1989.

its some guy with access to those flat rings and sticks on the standarb bulb holders that u get at radioshack. i guess if ya cant get those pieces, 13$ shipped isnt bad. I mean if ya think about "adding city lights" to a car as a mod or somethin, thats a pretty good price.

haha, reminds me of a guy that talked up his "short shifter mod." either way though, i doubt they'd perform badly, but i still wouldnt recommend em just cuz city lights i think can be done up alot nicer (if youre into that sort of thing). get better bulbs so you can get better output

same kit with yellow bulbs (non-led). the kit has been available from JDM land for ages.

I have the same type in my headlight housing. Here's a pic to give you a general idea of how it'll look like.




They don't come with extra wiring or switches, so just go to Autozone and get a cheap foglight harness by Pilot (model PL-HARN2) for $4.99 + tax.

^well thats not illegal as **** or anything...

Look! City lights no drilling!

will my HID's affect this? im thinking maybe the heat?

MrTodd

They'll explode like rice kernals, making the exact same noise when someone installs a 4" exhaust system on their otherwise stock D15B7 motor.

hid's burn cooler than halogens. but the bulb holders wont fit around the hid bulb (i used to have hid's, sold them)

i bought that same exact one on ebay. it worked perfectly on my del sol headlights. when my original bulbs burned out i had trouble looking for replacements, but they sell those bulbs at radio shack for like $2 for a pair. get em .

i remember i got the amber ones, and they didn't look ricey like all the other colors.

undertheradar

Had them....but when I changed out the bulbs for amber, they melted the plastic isolaters in the bulb holder and shorted out.


I like my DIY City Lights with prelude sockets anyways.

revvin9k

Been out for a long time, had em on my Sol before I got HID's, get the amber bulb for em and those things look real nice lit up.

When you guys talk about 'City Lights" they are lights that run a lower brightness at all times without having to have your headlights on right?

Well up here in Canada every vehicle on the road since like 1990 has "Daytime Running Lights"

Would you say that is the same?

If so I wonder how difficult it would be to add DRL to a US Vehicle?

undertheradar

No....DRL's are your headlight bulbs on at half brightness.

City lights are small auxillary bulbs that usuall match your corner bulbs. The are intended to help you be seen by other cars in the large cities of japan and Europe where the ambient lighting from streetlights and signs etc is brighter than normal.

diy for me

Don't DRL's peform the same function?

They give your car added visibilty during the day when your headlights are not on.

undertheradar

City lights are meant to be used at night.

01SSAP1

Ah hah so they are auxilary to your headlights.

Cool Thanks.

just ordered a set off ebay from the same seller. hopefully the "amber" kind will turn out as good as the blue one up there
