Change the color of your signals in your mirrors

Guys, i am so excited to tell you all that you can change the bulbs in your mirror signals. Dont make me feel stupid if you guys already know lol, but i was so excited to open my mirror and find out that i can actually change the bulbs and put even leds in there and it wont give an error. So now i am going to put some white leds in there.

To change: just open your mirror. Remove the mirror, disconeect the wires. You will see the four screws, open them. disconnect the wires. then just push the light out. You will then see small bulbs on top and sides. A skinny screwdriver will do the job. Please do at your own risk, becareful and do not break anything.

sure dude. Here is the link...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...210501799&rd=1
The bulb size you need is the 74, these are white leds and i changed all 6 in one light, the other 3 that are hidden in the housing you will need to make to make the holes bigger a bit, a small drill will do the work. Because the tip of these leds are just a little big, it only took me like 20 mins to do one mirror. It was getting cold so im going to do another one tomorrow. Just order quantity 6 and you will get 12 bulbs. When you put them in, just put one on the far end corner then the one on the other far end corner, doing that will make all the bulbs work for some reason you have to do that in that order i dont know but i had to do that in order for all of them to work.

oh and one more thing, the video is a little blurry cuz i made it through my phone. In the night the mirror signal just looks sick. I am going to put white leds in all of the signals and bumper as well and then the whole car will match the white
