Planning to de tango my head lights (and obviously put chrome bulbs in) and also put chrome bulbs in the side indicators too. Couldn't find the right topic to check, but are these the right bulbs?

Front indicators in head light - 343 (opposite pin) - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SILVERTEC-343-Silv...6#ht_1377wt_905

Side indicators - 501 - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SILVERTEC-501-Silv...6#ht_1438wt_905

Just wanted to check before I ordered them!

Cheers,

make sure you have the long thin nose plyers x 2
These are ESSENTIAL- i know because i did it with a screwrdriver and a normal pair and it took fecking ages and scratched all the inside of the lense

Well the bulbs didn't arrive today , was slightly optimistic as it said 2-3 days delivery and I only ordered them on Thursday night! But hopefully I'll be able to do it one night next week once they show up!

However, I got some Auto Glym stuff from Halfrauds on Friday night so I cleaned and polished the car this afternoon. By the time I finished it was dark so didn't manage to take any photos!

Noticed the rear indicator bulbs were orange too today. Didn't really think about them when ordering the chrome bulbs but do people generally replace these too? What bulbs are they, same as the fronts?

Cheers,

They're both opposite pin mate I know this because when I bought my bulbs on both occasions they sent me the wrong offset ones and I had to break out some mad skills with the metal work file for them to fit lol
