Don't Turn Corner Bulbs Around For Brighter Lights #2!!!!!!!
 
i rewired my corner lights for 2 months running 60 amps total in both fuse box (supposely 22.5 amps). my bulbs were APC superwhite and i followed the instruction by simply cuttin the lower nut to make it brighter.

the problem is if i dont' run 60 amps my fuse will keeps blowing and my t.tail lights won't come out. and it will also burn my circuits for running such a high amps.

2 days ago i picked up some raybrigs corners (japan imported), changed all fuses back to it's stock amp... and at night the corner light did not seem any dimmer than the one i rewired. i am very happy with the $31 raybrigs i payed.

this is just my personal experience, any feedbacks are welcome.

You won't be happy when those $31 bulbs blow..
I've had Polarg 1156 bulbs in my clearance lights for many months, never a problem .
Yes, the 1156 bulb (single filament) will work, just cut a knub so it can fit in the socket.
You're wasting your money...

not true. i have additional set of superwhite with single filament in garage. plus my raybrigs match with my bottom corner lights, and my signal lights match with my headlight. i dont' want different colors on my head projection.

Did you mean 60 watts, not Amps??

I've had my normal, non-hyerwhite autozone blubs turned around with a cut nub for almost 2 years now with no problems.

I never had a problem with my bulbs either and I installed them backwards corner front. I have $1.29 bulbs still shining bright and strong.

I clipped my stockers...1 yr ago..no probs. They have a yellowish tinge to them, but thats ok for now.

happyricefob May 10, 2003 12:48 AM

ugh...this thread was from like 2 months ago, how did it get bumped?

anywayZ it doesn't matter anymore cuz i wrecked my front, i don't even have the corner lamp and don't even talk about brighting the corner bulbs... this accident is lookin for $3,000 full package. shiet i'm screwed.

=(
