92-93 vs. 94-96 Turn Signals - Honda Prelude Forum

vipastyle · 11-04-2003, 02:28 PM

Yes, I know 92-93 were all orange and 94-96 had some clear, but I want to buy some all clear ones off of eBay. The ad says 92-93 so I was wondering if it will fit my 96. Other ads with the identical product say up to 96 so I wasn't sure.

they will fit. b/c the 94 lights fit into a 92. They are all the same.

They are all the same except the outer ones on JDM cars. The USDM outer lights have that fugly reflector, whereas the JDMs are uniform, and the JDMs dont have a hole for a light.

Yeah. I don't know why sellers specify aftermarket bumper lights 92-93 and 94-96 when all 92-96 lights fit just fine whether they are OEM, aftermarket, or J-Spec.

Because "aftermarket" makes the buyer think he's getting an upgrade or better deal than stock. It's just the twisting of words to make the buyer more interested in the product. And yes, it's annoying.

JDM cars just have a reflector on that side because they have real sidemarkers on the fender. USDM cars dont so they use a bulb in there.

Thanks guy. $9 on eBay. w00t!

Amber > clear.

vipastyle · 11-04-2003, 07:09 PM

Meh. Not according to this pic:

I can always go back to amber if I get bored.

only different is the bulb that the bumper lense uses. one is 7440 and the other is 3156 i believe.

vipastyle · 11-04-2003, 07:52 PM

But that can be changed right, or is it a whole different size? I want to put those PIAA hyper or superwhites or whatever they're called in there.

Awwww, <3

I'd love a photoshoot with mine and your ludes.

Maybe at PNM 04 if they ever figure out a place for it....

i think amber only looks good on black and white cars, sometimes red, definatly not blue

4bidden · 11-05-2003, 01:14 PM

You dont think amber looks good on blue?

vipastyle · 11-05-2003, 01:48 PM

I've always loved the front look of your car. If mine was blue I'd get full ambers but I think a clear front look, such as Charlie's, would look uber sweet.

tokenAZNguy040 · 11-05-2003, 05:38 PM

yeah...on my red Si, i think it looks better with all clears instead of the ambers....they just don't look good with my JDM 1-pieces

4bidden · 11-05-2003, 06:42 PM

I just love amber with blue. I had clears before the paint job and switched back to stock after I saw a picture of the blue 350Z with its amber front signals and fell in love.

I agree it depends on what color your car is which goes best.

If I ever switch over to black housing JDMs from my chromes, I'll probably take the ambers out and smoke some clears pretty dark grey and see how that looks. I think it'd look good with the CF lip, CF fog trims, and black JDMs.

I don't know if amber would go with the 1 pieces on mines :[

trancedprelude · 11-05-2003, 10:15 PM

i think clear looks better... here is mine...
