Lighting mods round 3 - side bulb

Im not sure what the official name is but lets just call them side bulb / marker. Assuming your dealer installed the clear ones or you bought some from suncoast or bumperplugs your in good shape. Along with a few others we requsted these to be made and here they are.

Tools needed: credit card or thin plastic piece.
Time: 5 minutes (no joke)

Hoen side marker www.hoen-usa.com/997i.htm

1. Real easy, push the housing towards the wheel, then pop out the side facing the front of the vehicle. Using a plastic card makes it easier.



2. Twist and remove the amber stock bulb.



3. Install with Hoen dLED (make sure the white side is facing out, not the black silicone chip side).






4. Plug in the socket and then re-install the housing

Enjoy your digital LED.

Interesting to note that the side markers cost more than the front parking lights!

Let me guess what you have coming next? License plate dLEDs?

[edit]: Just noticed your signature...you do have dLED license plate lights!

Noticed that in your signature. Hoen is sold out of those license plate lights until the 14th. What are BRVs? Your wife must really hate you.
