Default City lights for our EG's...!!! (calling all ppl who have them)

Recently searching i found some pretty intresting stuff on city lights , but not really any info on them for an EG.

I searched and found a thread about it and tried to post and in said ''invalid post''.

So...I'm wanting to do some city lights in my EG that are yellow.

Would anyone be kind enought to post part #'s or a link to a well detailed write up?

Also do i just buy a yellow bulb?

Tia

Is it possibly to use the 96-00 civic license plate thing and make them a yellowish color?

Bump for me wanting to understand this a little better.

Well i used a set of the rear license plate sockets w/an amber bulb and just drilled a small hole in my headlight. I used those sockets because they are rubber so you can make them fit. I'll post pics and part #'s tomorrow for ya.

I will post pictures tonight for you of what I did. The look great in yellow especially if you have you EG housing painted black. To give you an idea their are parts made specifically for this application. two questions though....

1. do you have the OEM EG headlights?
2. how good are you with electrical?

Hang tight I will have it all for you by 10:00pm CST

Peace-out!!

i just went to discount auto parts and bought a set of Gm sidemarker bulb things. And a set of amber bulbs. i drilled a hole in the back of my headlight housing, and poped them in.Took like 15 minutes to do it all and like ten bucks. Look great and have done it to three different cars.

You have to wire them to whatever lights you want them to turn on with. I would suggest the parking lights/ side markers.

Ok It looks as if I'm going to be doing it like this...I have 20.00 and I want to do this today..

Does anyone have a part number?
Any more info i need to know?
Do i just tap into my wires and what wires do i tap into?

I want them to turn on when i have my corners on only and when i turn my headlights on will they still be on?

Thanks guys
