Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Blown bulb . Spare becomes into another mod...

One of my reverse lights went out. and I'm kinda obsessed, when something is wrong with my car I want it fixed right away!

I remembered that bulbs # 194 and 921 have the same wedge base...
(right pic is bigger)

I did't have any 921, but several blue 5LED bulbs



So I decided to use them and the reverse lights adding another BLUE accent to the list.

I like it, but I think it is illegal

^^^yup, you're right..but oh well, i'm sure there are some if not a lot of illegal stuff you put on ur celi..right??

i love it morris. definately two thumbs up

and yes it is illegal..but its the reverse lights..so look at it this way: when you are in reverse...it's usually going to be when you back out of your driveway (private property) or backing out of a parking space (private property--unless its a government owned facility). seeing as how you can't get a ticket on private property the chances of being cited for it are slim and next to nothing.

of course you can always get asshole cops that might see it when your pulling out of a private parking lot and pull you over on the road...i've seen this done before with those lights you can mount on the windshield spayers on the hood. when i was leaving a movie theater a guy had them on and a cop seen him...the guy saw the cop too so he turned them off before he left the lot but the cop pulled him over anyway. don't know if he got a ticket or not though

Not yet, only had mine 4 months so far, I'm sure I will though

lemme ask this of you morris..how the hell did one of your reverse lights go out? lol j/w...seems kind of a short time for a reverse to go out.

Hey Morris, you said you have several of the led ones. Care to sell me a pair?

those are sweet !!!

it's only illegal when you backup

the light is off when you are driving forward

... so unless you are driving really fast, backward down the street - chances are that no one will ever know

yah jsut leave it..i have blue reverse lights b4 for 4 years!never got pulled over..how often do you reverse daily drivign wise right? so go for it..looks awesome...hey where you buys those L.E.D bulbs at???

They look great Francy


but not so sure how great they'd be in aiding you at night when backing up

that looks cool
