if im swapping out my 99 tails with the gross orange in them for the cleaner 02-03 tails can i use the same bulbs or do i need new ones? thanks for the help

 

You can use the same bulbs but what most people do is get the silver bulb so you wont get the broken egg yolk look .. Thats what I did. Silver bulb but blinks orange.

 

any pics of what the broken egg yolk look looks like? and where did you buy yours?

 

The "broken egg yolk" look is just a clear lense with an orange bulb being used giving it that yellowish look. I don't remember where I got mine but just google silver blinker bulbs.

 

Chrome bulbs are win if you don't want to put an LED back there.

 

I was thinking of doing the LED blinkers but I don't think I'd get away with it with the cops. I'm already fully tinted on the windows... Lol

 

leds would be illegal?

 

Honestly I dont know but I dont want give the cops any more reasons. Hopefully someone will chime in with any info.

 

sick tail lamp mod bro.

 

As long as they blink they wouldnt be illegal

 

Gotcha'...

 

do you know what number bulb i would need to get?

 

i also read something about possibly needing an adapter harness? what exactly is that and do i need it?

 

It's plug and play dude... Just a simple swap in bulbs. Nothing more.

thanks djescobar i appreciate it

 

not sure if it was already mentioned, but i swapped my lights on my 2001 to the 2002/2003 ones, you need a new wiring harness. Not sure how to get one, what i did is found an Acura that was totaled and bought both wiring harnesses for like 20 bucks from that person i found online. Then all you do is unplug and plug in new ones, really easy

 

I just got myself the 2001 TL. I wanted to change the headlights to the 02/03. would i have to change the hood and bumper for them to fit right?

 

talk about a thread from the dead. but yes you will need to change the hood, bumper, grill, and fenders i believe. basically a whole new front end.

 

Yeah i know its a very old thread but i didnt want to start a new one. Since this one was talking about the lights i said why not. Is this a for sure thing that the fenders will fit? The reason i want to change it all is cause i have a hook up with the parts i just want to make sure its going to fit right .

 

I have a 2001 TL i changed to 02/03, they will fit right in however you will need the wiring harness from a 02/03 TL. One of the lights i believe the turn signal doesnt go into the whole easy, you can always makeshift it, I found a TL they were parting out on ebay and got both wiring harnesses for like $20, other then that its plug and play really really simple to do
