[Civic Type R]

^ Agreed.
If you're going to rice, rice it properly

ooh as stupid as it sounds my mother dearest went to repco and they sell the covers (heh the condoms!) though the kid there convinced her they wouldnt work (parents are so impressionable)

but i might have to try that.. ill post a pic of the lights this afternoon thanx for the help!!!

PS: hate the stock lights - they look shitehousen on a purple car. And the altezzas dont look that bad!! i just want to fkk off this white business

Hi!

I've also got a '96 Civic Hatchback and one of my reverse lights have stopped working. Can anyone help me out and tell me how to change the bulb myself? - I know, I know ... stupid question but my car knowledge is limited :P

Thanks in advance.

[kimbi]

hehe even i know how do to that! (in most cars) you just pop the boot, find the panel that opens for the lights, find the blown one and stick a new one in.. not that hard

[mickey_matrix]

Thanks for the reply

I tried that though, I popped open the boot, lifted off the inside cover to reach my lights but there's all this stuff in the way and I can't reach the bulb

Yeah u just push it to the side a bit and u will be able to feel the end of the bulb.. u need to twist it around so it unlocks then it should be loose so you can then pull it out.

Thanks for the info re repco kimbi I will go and check it out.

Unless anyone wants to buy my lights? :roll:

If you dont like the stock tailights, then spend some cash and get some decent rice lights on it (if there is such thing)

Similar to these I guess....

Although I dont know even if the indicators on these ones are the right colour (orange)

i was going to buy a set but i dont have the cash atm and i want to get it roadworthy ASAP.. but as for those ones im just opposed to the red with my car cause i dont like the way it looks with the purple (im a real girl when it comes to that)..

the other lights i like i dont think are made for my civ.. theyre like completely blackened out ??? - my friend with a 94 civ has them..

bummer. :twisted:

umm what do they look like anyway? got pics?... shouldnt be hard to resolve, swap the bulbs, paint them, or change your lights

Girl, you need red, thats what colour the brake lights are

[kimbi]

well the ones i want (they blackened ones) do glow red and look pretty cool - and should be legal - just i dont have the cash for new lights because im looking to save for new wheels (white ones!!). ill just have to take a pic of the current ones and hope new bulbs will be ok, cause other than the 'not showing red' they look pretty good...
