So funny, we've been sitting here basically arguing about it but frustrated/confused why the other person keeps saying what they do. Now we know what's up... sort of.

I would go out there and look but I have really shady neighbors. I dont want them to see 4 subwoofers in my trunk.

Anyone want to check the bulb numbers on the actual bulbs on their tails for me? 99 Civic and 2000 Civic?

Any last words of wisdom before I place this order? The final list is updated on the first post.

I'm doing the front turn signals, rear turn signals, all 4 brake lights, reverse lights, plate lights.

I'm not gonna do map and plate lights yet. I'm also not doing the 3rd brake light since I have the LED spoiler.

i finally bought some bulbs and stuff. only half of the order so far though. got flashers and flasher relay only this time before i decide on the rest. oh, and plate lights. picked those up too.

I waited until i was drunk to order them so i would be more open to suggestion...

The long awaited conversion is complete. Works perfectly. Video will be up sometime today in my project thread.

So far, kind of as a pilot program, I did LED plate lights and turn signals only. 4 LED turn signals (1157A and 7440A) and two 168 base 4-led WLED, then the turn signal relay. All that together cost me like $50 shipped. Vid is on the project thread. No pics really needed. The video covered it.

Next up will be the 4 tail light bulbs, dome light, and map lights. I may end up swapping every dash light too eventually.
