Bulb Replacements?
Hey all,
Do you guys know how to replace the bulbs for these areas of the TSX:
1) License Plates
2) The lights on the rear-bumper. Not sure what these are called.
Btw, I plan on using LEDS and want to make sure that these bulbs are the same as what you would use in the inside of the car? the wedge bulbs?

Yes, the license plate bulbs are wedge bulbs. But I recommend you use white bulbs instead of LEDs for that because LEDs throw very little light sideways. One of the AUDM Accord Euros here had the license plate lights changed to LEDs and it looks like there are no lights at all!!!
BTW, the map and passenger compartment lights are Festoon 31mm.

As I said, you have to use wedge LEDs (T10, 168, 194) that are not too big in diameter. The interior uses festoon 31mm, not wedge. The door lights are wedge T10 as well. So please get the correct ones.
