If you want to shave the little **** off the bulb, you do not have to rewire, just do this:

Take out the 1157 bulb... it should have 2 little nipples on the sides of it, opposite sides of one another, 1 is higher then the other one... shave the HIGHER one. Then take the bulb and put it in backwards, so the lower nipple that is still left will line up and go directly into the higher socket thingy where the nipple you just shaved used to go.... it will make them a LOT brighter then stock... I just did this tuesday and damn, now they are even brighter then my headlights (because headlights have ****ty bulbs). hope this helped.

I hope it won't we'll see.. I upgraded the fuse too.. there is a bunch of people running this for a long time without problems... The guys that burned the wiring probably ran on higher wattage bulbs or something

If you do that to a 95 won't it make the corner dimmer when the blinker is on?
