hey guys i did the 99-00 taillight conversion and now my taillights flash clear, i heard i have to change the bulb to amber but i went to honda and they dont have amber bubls and neither do my local auto part stores


now they only thing i can think of is that the 99-00 taillights for the hb have a orange reflector alerday inside since i cant find the amber bulbs, but yet my 99-00 taillights dont have that reflector.

please help a.s.a.p thanks

 

i've been in your situation before. the reason honda does not have amber bulbs for your style bulbs is because the 96-98 style plug is different than the 99-00.

the 99-00 OEM bulbs are amber, but they are connected differently. so in order to get an amber 96-98 style bulb.. just to go some import accessory shop and they should have it.

 

could i just paint my clear ones with model paint ?????


thanks buddy

 

Just pull your clear bulb and take it to the autoparts store. match it to one there and your good to go. I did the same thing for my front turn signals. When I got my hatch, it had fuggin blue turn signals with the orange reflector taken out.

 

see if been to way 2 many places and none have a orange/amber bulb

well i just painted one of them while i waited for replys (im very impatenient)

once it dries ill throw it in and post back up

if anybody else can lend me a hand please post up

 

i did the same thing, you have to get apc bulbs, they sell an amber bulbs for the rear, they look oem so dont worry about any neon or anything like that, go to your local car parts store, like kragen or pep boys, and look in the apc section it will be in there with all of that crap, i think they are like 5 bucks or something.

 

thanks for all the help guys

i used some clear oragne model paint and they look alright

ill defeintley look into the apc lights, i went to one auto parts store and they guy brought me to the apc lights but nothing looked like my bulb and all they had was purple colours

 

if u r going to paint the bulbs, i think u r gonna need heat intensity heat paint so that it does not melt. sumone cerrect me if im wrong.

 

when i was still driving my Scooter i did it with my moms nail polish. just like all my friends ,its Cheap *** and it worked verry good.
