light bulb info

hey..wassup everyone.. i've been steadily getting PMs asking which light bulbs i use on my car so i thought i should just post it for all those who might be wondering..

all the parking/signal bulbs are from a japanese company called Polarg (BL-Hybrid).. since my headlamps are jdms, the corner bulb is different from the US version. mine uses a larger bulb, but the US version uses the..

1. Polarg BL-Hybrid #M-4 bulbs in the headlamp corners as well as the corner bumper lamps.

2. the bumper signal lamps i believe uses the Polarg BL-Hybrid #M-2 bulbs. (mine was coverted to a dual filliment setup using the Polarg BL-Hybrid #M-14 bulbs.)

3. the rear license plate lamps use the the Polarg BL-Hybrid #M-6(alittle larger/brighter), but the Polarg BL-Hybrid #M-2 bulbs are the correct size..

4. the headlamps i am currently using is the helios 9000k HID kit, but previously, i used M-tec H-4 bulbs(japanese brand).

5. the factory foglamps are stock h3 bulbs..

6. the aftermarket foglamp kit is a PIAA kit.

7. interior dome lights and door panel lights use the Polarg BL-Hybrid #M-16 bulbs

8. trunk lamp uses the Polarg BL-Hybrid #M-4 bulb..

these are without HIDs..

with HIDs..

hope this helps...

they will not fit because the bulb is slightly bigger than m4 bulbs.. they do fit the socket and light up, but will not fit into the corner lamp assembly..
