Talking Changed the parking light this weekend!!

During the Bay Area tech day, whatever and I changed our parking bulbs to PIAA Platinum HID "look" bulbs. Before you ask, they're size 168 bulbs. I also found out size 194 bulbs are the same exact size and measurements as well, the only difference is the amp. Forgot which is higher..

Here are some pics!!

First one is one with PIAA (right) and the other stock (left)

Looks great! I was planning on doing the same thing in a couple of weeks. Did you have to remove the wheels? Or just turn them and remove the fenderwell panel?

Thanks!

If your car is not lowered, all you need to do is turn the wheels to the left when working on the right side and vice versa. Unsrew 2 screws inside the wheel well right above the front tire and remove a few clips inside the wheel well. Then unscrew 2 screws right underneath the front bumper. Pop open the wheel well plastic and try to gain access.

My car is lowered so I need to jack it up to uncrew some screws.

Good luck!!
