CEFIRO 1 Piece >>>'second bulb' Q's<<<<<<<<

Just gettin used to the lights, got the Sylvania Siverstar Ultras, hopefully they last me longer than I've heared but I love the light output. Anyways my question is about the extra harness/socket inside the main headlight in the cefiros. Firstly what type of bulb does it hold, I assume its for a coloured bulb, but what #? And secondly what is best to hook the wiring up to? Should I hardwire a fused 12V switch? I assume someone's been through this and the answer is out there somewhere, not having any luck figuring it out, lots of info on the cefiro headlights but nothing on this 'extra' bulb. Thanks in advance any advice here would be great.

194. put a hyper white (like polarg) in it. hook up to your parking lights. it's called a city light.

alrite, just run a jumper from the city lights then? And could i use it I wonder as a coloured bulb on an aux switch..... I want green headlamps but obiously they're illegal so i want to be able to control them individually. If I were to do this how should they be wired... the RIGHT way? thanks for the reply man now I understand what everyone means by "city light"

not sure how to hook it up other than direct to parking lamp. if you want green lights, just get a green H4 (9003) conversion kit and be done with it bro.

for the Extra light I bought a PIAA Blue LED (pretty sure its 194) Anyways, kinda expensive, but that light is never on inless my headlights are on. So it just gives a cool blue glow. I have never been pulled over for this.

The idea is to be able to have my LEGAL headlights set up normally, and have an auxillary green 194 on a separate switch so I can shut it off if necessary, or at least control whether the lighting is green or regular white. One other question, I've noticed while looking an 'inverted' green 194 bulb, what is an inverted bulb? I assume instead of shining the light to the sides and away from the harness(forward), they actually shine to the sides and toward the harness, and not to the front at all. Thats my guess anyways can someone clarify this? If that is the case would I want an inverted 194 so that the green light will mix in with the headlight, or would it not work that way?
