Ambers! Bringing back the old school! I use to have them back in the day, wired to a switch on the dash. Anyhow not sure what part number but I was just at Kragen the other day and I saw the double pigtails we used to use. Check Kragen or Autozone! Make sure to use the 1157 bulbs.

 

where do the "ambers" go ?

sorry, im not too old school....

 

my91tealhb - thanks for the heads up, if you ever come across that part number let me know. i wanna get into that project pretty soon here since im bulding my "back in the day" 91 si.

patotas - haha no worries bro. basically back in the day we would wire our rear turn signals to a switch so they would stay "On" constant, and then blink when you hit the turn signal. back in 88, 89 we didnt have many options for imports, we did with what we could. atleast for me..might be different for few others, it was basically your crew of 10, 20, 5 however many and youd all roll as a crew with ambers "on" to signify you were a crew, or on the freeways to signal others racers that you wanted to race.

just kinda of an old school thing for us import guys coming up. im just doing it for old school sake, and nothing more. i stopped working on cars back in 92-93 so my memories of the import scene were from then, and not now.

 

skydvs14-Better yet go to the junk yard and cut off some brake light sockets from a civic or integra of the same year as your car. Then you dont have to modify your stock pigtails. You might need to modify the socket a little.

 

used to had those in my old ef , also stupid cop give me ticket for that....... said that "it look like a reverse light" i was like WTF!!!

 

do any of you guys remeber running city light in the headlights, purple always looked the best . also city lights in the reverse lights on a switch, god i havent thought about that in forever. i thought i was so cool with ambers and "pilot" fog lights cause piaa's were out of my price range

 

yea i remember city lights. i had red ones because i had a red hatch lol so funny. yea, we too used to get popped for ambers also. anyways thought it be fun since my builds a back in the day build

 

if you have a NAPA around you go in and ask one of the counter salesman for part number LS6253. Echlin product. 3 wire, 1157 honda style pigtail.

 

anyone with pictures of this...

 

EcivicGi - thank you sir!

 

I remember installing blue city lights in my buddys 89 hatch. We had to drill holes in the headlight housing. Think he bought them at Carmate. Stupid things we did, but it looked good. City lights were the ish back in the day. I remember everyone would cruise with there city light on at the Compton/Maria street races.

 

yeah i would like to see a pic.

 

no problem =]

lol browsing HT at work, look up the part number real quick and your good to go.

had to look through the book for it anyways considering i just had a blowout and it ripped my front socket out.

 

well i do appreciate the time taken to look them up in the book. greatly appreciate it!
