LOL ok fair enough. thanks for letting me know. i understand what you mean now. i thought it was just slow shipping, but if i have to pay customs and go to airport thats bs. the dealer should take care of that. but at least it goes to show how ridiculously overpriced the traders here are.
^ to be honest its not too bad. jdm concept quoted me 2.1k landed to my door. blinded by the hidden fees from nengun, i decided to go with nengun. but at the end of the day, it was only around 100 or so cheaper but i had to go get it from the bloody airport
Someone drag their CU2, PLEEEEAAAAAASE!
ok realllly noob question, how do i replace parkers lol. I just popped the hood and have no idea how to access the bulbs. same with the number plate lights. CU2
car manual yo!
not sure about cu2. but cl9 and accords you can change the parkers through the wall lining of the front wheels. the number plates there should be clips, fiddle around with it and it should pop out. might have to pop out a few of the lining.
fair enough. i dont want to deal with airport and custom fees and stuff, so i wont be buying from nengun then.Quote:

Step 1) Refer to owners manual, its got diagrams and a step by step process on pg. 406 & 410
Step 2) Open hood. To change the right side parker remove the coolant reserve tank by pulling up on it with moderate force (do so in order to gain access to back of lights)
Step 3) remove the socket from the headlight assembly by turning it anticlockwise.
Step 4) pull the bulb straight out and replace it (make sure its in tightly, i lost a bulb into the engine bay because it wasn't in properly!)
Step 5) re-insert the socket (inc. bulb) back into the headlight assembly and turn it clockwise to lock it in place.
Step 6) test (turn on parkers)
Step 7) Replace coolant tank
Step 8) to change the left side parker, remove the two fasteners holding the upper part of the air intake duct and then pull it out.
repeat steps 3-6
Step 9) replace upper part of intake duct and replace fasteners.
Step 10) close bonnet, done!
It sounds difficult, but seriously it is ridiculously simple, anyone can do it.

wow! thanks for that reply! so indepth!. nd yes it looks much better. outta curiosity is it legal to have blue parkers? wat about blue number plate lights? i bought white and blue, if i cant use blue parkers then i will use then for number plate lights. actually i dont noe how to change those either
blue is illegal
I have a "super white" parkers with a tint of blue on them, its not a strong blue though so i think it's ok, same with the number plate lights at the back. The only problem is they're not very strong lights
even for number plates?Quote:
