I'm glad to read you like the rear lenses look and the blinker lighting.

I guess they stocked up just in time for everyone else to get them

My RX will get a long overdue bath today. I will put one of the old bulbs in to do a true color comparison. Right now it's hard to see through the salt

FYI, the instructions in the manual shows using a screwdriver on the side to pop open the cover. I used my trusty plastic shopping card, inserting it on the side like the illustration. I started toward the bottom and brought it up and over the top. The cover will pop open at the top. The tabs are on the bottom.

I'm surprised you didn't use that wonderful $16 bargain pry tool from Sewell.

Hi Anita

My stock yellow bulbs don't have the black plastic base. They look just like the SilverVision. It appears the bulbs diifer between the 350 and 450h.

Ah, time to call the installer. Lesson learned, pull the bulb before ordering because I can't trust the manual Thanks Tran. I'm really liking the rear blinkers

It's a bummer the bulbs differ, I Hope you get it worked out. At least the back is good to go

True indeed but it's so much fun

Thanks for the help. I had found those at that web site, I guess I expected more sites to carry them. I'm sorry but, I think $50 for 4 little bulbs is expensive. I would do the LED's but then you have to mess with other aspects of the system.

Anita you want to sell me the ones you can't use?

Otherwise I will bite the bullet.

kitlz

MEP, I have to see if my installer knows of any adaptors first. I'm not giving up yet

kitlz

Joeb, I'll let you know when I come up with a good use for it

I'm still amazed at the cost of that pry tool.
That thing costs about a quarter to make material and labor.

kitlz

OK, between rain showers I put one of the OE bulbs back in and did a side by side comparison. Pretty close I'd say. SilverVision is on the left, OE on the right.

Thanks for the pic,Anita.
I like that the Silver Vision bulb shows less orange in the lens with the bulb off.

kitlz

But it looks like it'll glow in the dark

Here is a picture of my high tech pry tool. The corners are getting a little bent though. Time to visit the courtesy desk for a new one. Best part, it's free

Thanks for the pics it's nice to see them in action. The new ones are a tinge yellower which is fine by me. Another thing to make the RX stand apart.

Plastic putty knife works for a pry tool as well, that's what I use.
