Bulb sizes help



these look like the same ones i got....it looks like they just use the oem sockets but im not 100% sure...anyone who get em care to chime in? they just have empty holes so i gues the stock ones fit it.......so if so, are the stock sizes:
low beam - 9006
high beam -9005
turn signals - 1156

eBay Motors: 92-96 HONDA PRELUDE 1PC HEADLIGHTS JDM BLACK 93 94 95 (item 140271835442 end time Oct-03-08 19:03:08 PDT)



also, is 921 the correct bulb size for the high mount stop light, and is 168 the correct bulb size for the license plate light? and is DE3175 correct for dome light?

lol sry for all the questions..thanks tho!

1. Those are the knockoff jdm headlights.

2. They use stock bulbs.

3. I would remember the stock bulb sizes but it's been a long time, I would suggest just going to autozone.com and looking at the sizes.

Yea like peter said those are not real jdms. Real jdm use different bulbs so make sure you know what you're getting.

by corner lights, do u mean the ones directly next to the headlights or the bumper lights?

corner lights the next to the headlights... in that headlight is "integrated"
the ones in the bumper are the signal lights (2 pcs)

DeyAinRdy4Ds

so the corner lights dont flash when ur making a turn...the bumper lights are the ones that flash?

Yep, corner lights don't flash, they're more like daytime running lights, just the bottom two turn signals flash.

el_baby

the corner lights will light up before the low beams...
the bumper lights will light up too, but they will flash alternating that 2 pieces when you put the signals...

DeyAinRdy4Ds

ooo ok thanks...so the corner lights are basically parking lights and the bumper lights are the turn signals..

now whats the bulb size for the corner lights? (corner 194?)
and whats the bulb size i need for the bigger bumper light? (1156?)
and the bulb size i need for the smaller bumper light?

corner lights - 194 (they are next to the headlight)

bumper lights - i think they are 1156 but not sure
the high mount brake light i think it is 1156 too, but not sure

92-96 Prelude headlight w/Corner

corner lights are to the corners of the headlights.. duh!
the bumper lights are the ones down the head lights (two "long" pieces)

DeyAinRdy4Ds

ok cool..i got the amber bumper lights but they seem to have different sized holes in em for diff size bulbs...do they take diff sizes?

and they dont have the sockets that hold the bulbs..n i dont have the sockets that hold the corner light bulbs either..ne idea where i can get em?

the conectors, plugs, ect are included in the car wiring...

most of them will be something like this... twist for lock

Side markers

DeyAinRdy4Ds

ya i know theyre included in the car but when i bought the car recently, there were not bumper lights, plugs, nuthin....so i need em..

and i just saw my amber corners...for the bigger peice it says A in a circle #1156...and for the smaller one it says A in a circle #168 so i gues 168 is the smaller ones bulb size..sound rite?

the 168 is the same as 194...

try to search in google or ebay for "honda 1156 socket buy", "honda 1156 pigtail buy" or something like that..
Lighting Wiring
it had an aftermarket bumper? or they were stolen?

DeyAinRdy4Ds

lol na i didnt...thats the link i used for my benz and i thats where i first looked upt he bulb sizes from my OP...but its not totally clear as to whats what but now it makes sense...1156 and 168 for the bumper corners and 194 for the headlight corners..i jus wanted to verify everything before ordering and now i did...jus ordered some 5000k 9006 HIDs, 9005 high beam bulbs, 1156 LED amber turn signals, 168 LED amber turn signal , and about to get to the 4 white LED 194/168 for the headlight corners and license plate bulbs

ya it seems like 194/168 are the same ..i gues they r...dono wassup with the different names but w.e...

n ya ima try lookn or hopefully the bodyshop that does all my work can jus get em or something....

i got the car with the bumper jus tied on with metal hangers n sht...no bumper support or nethin n i dono if i even have all the wiring for the bumper corners and headlight corners..

DeyAinRdy4Ds

this should be another thread... just taking it slowly...

i had buy that "jdm projectors" and runing them with hid, i almost cant see anything at night... about a year i look for info, went to hidplanet.com... i buy hella projectors i think they were from a audi a6...

i had to trim some parts of the reflector and bend others so it can go inside the headlight... now i'm working with the adjusting screws... most of the retrofits you fix the projector to the headlight and if later adjust is required you use the screw of the whole headlight.. in my case the adjust needs to be directly to the projector which make it a bit more dificult...

when i finish i will take pics of it and try to make a write up...

i also make it another halo ring for the high beams... and thinking to add like a led strip...
