Tail Light ? - Honda Prelude Forum

DieGo · 02-12-2003, 02:36 PM

Well if there was a new lighting forum I would post this there. Anyway, I cleared out my tails and put a light coat of orange nail polish over the clear bulbs and colored them with a black marker so you couldnt see them. It looks perfect now and at night the luminosity is fine but in the day its not quite enough to be noticed by all of the unconsious drivers here in SD. I was wondering if the titan bulbs from this page: http://www.andysautosport.com/honda/...oredbulbs.html do the same thing but brighter. There is no explanation of what they do but I think its what I need. Anyone using these?

That is too much to pay for bulbs....just get the stock ones and do the ntpog.org thing....

DieGo · 02-12-2003, 02:55 PM

Yeah I found them for 7.66 each at importstore so thats only 15 bucks for two, that I could do. 30 + 10 for shipping is a joke for 2 bulbs. ntpog.org thing? Ill check it out.

I see where it has the DIY for clearing but Ive already done that. I need a DIY for bright amber bulbs that dont look amber.

you get amber bulbs and dip them in a silver paint....

DieGo · 02-12-2003, 03:05 PM

Doest seems like the light would shine through silver paint, I think its a special silver tint. Like on a one way mirror.

really. Have you noticed how the new volvo turn signals seem to be more clear than orange. I need to clear my tails one of these days....grrrr

Yes, I've heard of a couple of cars that have turn signals more than amber or yellow.

I've had clears on my front's for about... a month now I guess. No problems. I've even gone past cops and State Troopers and no one bothered me... yet. I still have to do my rears...

khilgers · 02-13-2003, 12:00 AM

I haven't really had any problems with my front signals w/clear bulbs.

exactly. I'll do it once the weather starts warming up and I have access to a soldering gun.

azninside · 02-13-2003, 12:14 AM

my weather is warm outside in cali an I'm STILL too lazy to do it

khilgers · 02-13-2003, 12:20 AM

You are one lazy bastard hahaha j/k

azninside · 02-13-2003, 12:31 AM

yeah :

: I've had a neuspeed front sway sittin on my floor for like 8-9 months, some interior/exterior blue streetglow gold neons for like 5-6 months or so, an I've already had my spoon rear strut bar and neuspeed rear sway for like a week or so....all waiting to go on

khilgers · 02-13-2003, 12:42 AM

well get on it already, what are you waiting for?

khilgers · 02-13-2003, 12:43 AM

actually I shouldn't talk. I still have all of my old parts sitting in my parents garage, but my dad doesn't get back for another 2 weeks and I need to use the hoist at his work.

sandiegan · 02-13-2003, 01:16 AM
