Bulbs for Reverse Light on 93 LS!
Hey All,
I have been ordering Mods for my LS like crazy but it wont be anywhere as nice as Edogg's aka Clesior GOD when its finished. So far I have changed the Bumper Lenses to clear, ordered PIAA Super Plasma lights (They look just as good as thge Type 2 HID's on the new BMW's and Benz's) for the head and corner lights and a 2\3 Clear\Red Taillight, as well as changed my Grille to an aftermarket without the L Emblem and the Grille is Chrome. I plan on taking the rest of the badges off the car and just keep the L Emblem on the trunk. Anyway, I was talking with my friend who has a 540i and he just bought these lights for his Reverse Light that turns them into a sort of foglight. i dont know what they call them but they are way brighter than the stock bulbs, everybody should know that he is backin up now. i would like to do the same thing for my LS. What bulb fits in the reverse light socket. I guess I can order some Super or Xtreme Whites from PIAA to get sorta the same effect.
Also, I want to change my foglights as well. i just replaced one of the bulbs because it was burnt out but ofcourse it will always be Yellow because of the lense. How can i change the lense to make it clear like the headlights. I would like to install some HID's in them to complete the whole lighting package especially since i cant install HID's in my headlights (I will lose the high beam). What bulbs fit in the foglights? Any help would be greatly appreciated as usual. As soon as all the mods are finished I will post some pics, just dont laugh at my stock 16in. Chrome Rims.

brighter
Brighter reverse bulbs.
Go buy a set of standard replacement bulbs, place them carefully under your foot (shoes onm please) so when you apply your weight only the glass bulb shatters, now shatter the glass.
Go to any hardware store and buy two 20 watt 12 volt halogen bulbs and solder them into the standard bulb base.

Wow,
That actually works great. i applied your method for upgrading my reverse lights and now its almost like having HID's in the rear. Now when i reverse cars pull over to the side because they think i am some crazy *** driver coming in the opposite direction as them. Thanks for the info, man!!!
