I know a few are waiting for the load resitors before buying, I will try my best to get it done soon so that you can take advantage of the great deal Steve put together.

Can we still run the lights without the load resitors? Will it do any damage to the car?

My kit came yesterday. Well packaged but the plastic piece on the end of the light assembly cracked from the joining piece.....on both assemblies, no biggie as I used Gorilla glue to re-attach. It is difficult to pack the assembly, and Carson used very, very good packing. Just something to keep an eye on when your kit is in. It is not a critical piece, just facia.

Question though.

The amber light was not available at my local Lexus dealer (Mission Viejo, CA.).

Does anyone know the after-market bulb no.?

If I ordered today from the dealer, they would not be in until Weds. I would like to get the kit in on Monday, given the free time available.

Anyone know the Sylvaina or Oshram # for this bulb??

Thanks,

Nice 430
