Nobody in my city would know the difference since there are NO 03 CLs around.

Nice. What bulbs are you using in the turns? That's my next mod after my exhaust. I want to get same brand so turns and reverse match....not that i'll be using them at the SAME time...

he's talking bout the '03 tails he swapped in his '02

he's using the PIAA 19228's (1157-type bulb) for the turn signals instead of the amber bulbs...i should note that for the turn signals, u can use either the 1156 or 1157 type bulbs, BUT keep in mind the turn signal requires a single filament bulb, and the 1157 bulb is a dual filament...it's no harm to use a dual filament bulb, but the second filament won't b used at all, so if that means u can save a few bucks getting a single filament 1156 bulb, then get the 1156

the only places where u really need dual filament is for the front top side marker/turn signal (1157 type bulb) and the rear parking/brake light (7443 type bulb)

1156 will work...they're the same size and shape...one's single filament, the other's dual

and on www.optauto.com they're the same price

he's talking about the fact that Lou's posts only contain little red x's in boxes.
