i did my corner light rewire, they look nice and esp at night, i have stock bulbs and wont be getting any higher wattage bulbs, but is there any side effects, will i burn my harness or anything?? please let me know cause i found out the hard way about the headlights when i used higher wattage-toasted them

 

non here yet and I have 55 watt bulbs

 

I think it depends on how the wires are spliced into the circuit (haven't done this mod yet). If it's in parallel, then no big deal because current will always follow the path of least resistance.

 

well i had it for almost 8 months now... and the only bad thing is that it makes a brown mark on the bulb.. but thats it.. they still work great..just added strobes....hope they dont burn the strobe harness, its not like they can light up the road for ya.. its just like 25% lighter

 

hey JDwyer i have the same color max and the same grill, all i need is need rims but i may get maxima wheels, all depends on the price. i like ur max

 

no problems that I know of

REWIRE POWER

 

same hear....I think its been 1.5 years and counting! Craig, you da man!!!

 

yeah, i'm pretty sure you have nothing to worry about. they do make hyperwhite bulbs that are the same wattage as stock though, you could go with those.

 

yea speaking of, i gotta get around to doing my rewire

 

..thanks to max240 who hooked me up at the HID meet couple of weeks ago.. Yeah i just love em', but i would like some more info on what blubz i should put in the corners... i want the corners to match with the headlights.. any help? What are the wattage on the blubz... how can i make them brighter...? Also wha are the sizes for the bulbz...

 

Well the real thanks so go out to Craig for inventing this MOD, put any how , your welcome for actually doing it

 

and to max420 who cut my wires and put them back..lol

 

you're welcome guys

crazy - since you changed your sig, it doesn't make sense where it says 2 ladies and you have the speedo pic now
also, maybe take some of the words out? it's a bit long (I can't complain though because my pics are pretty big too)

 

Yes i now its lengthy, but what more can i say out my vg... I need attention.. I ain no 14 sec 3rd gen, or have extensive mods or a good looking max....:sorry if its annoying

 

If it's spliced in parallel with the ENTIRE harness, yes, but not inside the harness...
Lights don't have the same values as a regular load, they change resistance depending on the conditions, and with a 12V steady applied to it, a 55W bulb will ALWAYS draw 5A of current (It's actually a little less, don't want to break out my calculator heh)
Hrmm, but actually, now that I think about it, mebbe you are right... Because with a lower voltage (i.e. in series) it would increase the current applied to the entire circuit...
Hrmmm, nevermind, you're right, for the most part, and I'd have to see a schematic to know where the point of diminishing return is.

 

Here you go


http://www.custommaxima.com/Polarg.html

Bulb sizes in the corner lights are 1157 and 194's. Big bulbs = 1157, little bulbs = 194's...
If you wanna be like me you'll order the matching bumper lights too. Those are 1156's.

 

Can anyone tell me how to do the rewiring for the 3rd gen max?

 

search and you would find that the person who did the write up is craig b. so there is the link, you can click can u? j/k Hope you like your mod, i know i do
