Let me know what you guys think.

They looked sharp... Really classy on the interior.

Ok again, sorry for being stupid but I really want to do this mod, can someone show me or tell me how to install these bulbs in the backlights? I replaced front lights but that was just going thru the hood and no big deal.

RTFM. all the answers are in there. also you can STFF.
go to the trunk open it, pop off the cover in the trunk area and you can access the pulbs that way. not hard.
best bet, RTFM.

The PHILIP SilverVision (PY21W) rear blinkers are just a little bit brighter (shiny) than the standard stock blinkers. They look great off, and they look great on. off, on, off, on... oh, they're just blinking !

You can still kind of see the amber in the Philips bulb...
With my Silver Xtremes, it completely hides the color.
I think for the money, and the fact I get a lifetime warranty, that the Silver Xtremes are a better buy.

maybe ill go with the silver extremes next time when i need to replace them. i like the silver vision though and you really have to be up close to see any bit of amber. in the 05 taillights they are perfect IMO.
