Hey guys, I'm gonna be replacing the amber bulbs in my headlights, not sure what the bulb # is though. I think it's 1157. I'm also not sure about another thing. Is our turn signal the same corner amber light that's on when the headlights are on, or are they two different bulbs? Thanks for the help very much appreciated

ck autozone or similar online for correct number

go look at your car to see what lights are what

Yeah, any local auto parts store will have a complete listing of all the various lighting bulbs used on our TL's. The front parking and turn signal lamp bulbs are 1157A. The corner side marker lamp is a 168 small mini bulb. It's accessible by going up through the wheelwell.

Also does anybody know the fuse size that we would need to replace once we get these in?

the stock bulb is 1157a. the "a" in 1157a stands for the color amber. also yes, the turn signal light is the same as the corner light thats on with the headlights. i just learned that if you put a tiny piece of wire tape over the prong on the bulb (because there are 2 prongs on a 1157 bulb) that makes contact with the red wire then the lights wont be on with the headlight and only come on when the turn signals are activated.

Oh well yea I know the bulb size.
I am looking to buy one of those resistors that goes right into the fuse box to prevent hyper-blink (as I am getting LED's for the rear to get rid of the Egg-Yolk effect too)

guys!
Bamp!

I am not sure what the exact fuse number is that I can plug in a resistor to to stop the hyper blink.

I want to do it this way so I dont have to buy a resistor at both ends for my LED's and can do it straight from the Fuse box
Something like these?

sorry, i did mine at both sides at the light, i didnt even know they made something for that. but i understand, id hate to have to take that bumper and headlight off again.

Yea dude I might just buy a resistor for all 4 then.
Just gotta figure out the stock voltage and see how much resistance I need to add.
