deathmonkey Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Would be good to see some pics of this installation. post some pics up! Check my garage mate, there's a night time photo in there with the better sidelights, big difference; http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=2959 Ah cool, thought it was a case of just swapping over. No probs will give me someting to do as im off work for 6 weeks due to my back surgery. Sounds easy enough to do. What exactly do you need to do? You have facelift indicators already, I'm guessing the sidelights are already connected in them? In which case it is a direct swap? Whatever needs doing, it is easy though mate; http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=208056 I had no idea that Geo was short for George.

Geo Posted January 27, 2010 Author Share Posted January 27, 2010 Right guys, Here is a wee tutorial on how to change these bulbs, plug and play. I did the Passenger side one first, all i had to do was move my expansion tank to one side, 2 bolts easy enough. Then i twisted and removed the long side light canister. Pull off the old bulb, plug in the new one, job done. Pics below. Driver side i had to remove my Filter as it was in the way, same way to do this side. I'll get a pic tonight in the dark, for better pics. Now the difference's, looks so much better now. Front end now tidy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Much better colour there, will look a lot less miss-matched with the HID headlights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a long time since I worked on my facelift sidelight / indicators, but I'm pretty sure they are a bayonette, twist application, not a 'snap in' like the pre-facelifts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't put L.E.Ds in, I used the philips silver vision bulbs for the side light and obviously you just plug then in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are they like Matt are they quite bright?? if you used plug and play then the L.E.D's should work with the facelift lights then, did they look like the old ones from my pic above?? if so the L.E.D's will work. I see your thinking here! I thought pretty much all sidelights looked like your pic above but i might have to take mine out to see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2 MSW Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 If you get the wiring harness from toyota for the facelift sidelights then they are the same fitment as the the ones in the light cluster. I used 4 of the same LED's for mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
