Bright Lights

Where can i get the white lights for the parking and standing lamps? i tried autodynamics but they dont have the w 5w which is specified in the manuel. Question #2) is it possible to change the fog lights so they are white as well? Question #3) speaking of fog lights, when my rear fog lights are turned on, it seems like only the left one goes on? is this normal?

"White" parking lights? At 5W? Are you sure you know what you are talking about? They are supposed to be dim, that's why they didn't put 55W halogens there.

Vadim, yeah i know theyre suppose to be dim but i want to make them white. ok let me try to describe...in the head light theres one sectionthats for the low beam and the high beam. well in the high beam section theres a lil light bulb that goes on everytime you turn on your lights and when you press your alarm on. i thought it was the high beam going on untill today when i saw in manual its an independant light bulb. i want to change that light bulb so its not a yellow glow but more of an extreme white glow.

rear foglight

as for the rear foglight, from my knowledge, i was informed that it is only on the left side so that drivers in the fog would be able to see cars that are in front of them, if anyone has anything to add to this please add

It's on the left only for LHD cars. The reason is that it's supposed to mark the left corner for drivers passing you on the left, which is the only way allowed in most countries (US included, although in the US it is not enforced, unlike, say, Europe).

For the RHD world the situation is reversed, of course.

Any local Stereo alarm shop should have all the bulbs JKD. I got all 8 bulbs for 95 bucks....and it looks great.
