    Default Phillips Silver Vision Indicators

    Although only small modification... it is my first. I would call myself a car enthusiast, I am not so mechanically minded

    I purchased some Phillips Silver Vision indicator bulbs for the front of my car and for me it wasn't easy as I first thought
    I have done the mod before on my previous vehicle (Nissan Pulsar SSS), but i guess newer cars have more in them and I found it difficult to change as I couldn't see where my hand was to the bulb!

    I eventually did it and I did find the passenger side 10x easier.
    1. I had already done the drivers side and
    2. There seems to be more room on that side.

    I also found jacking up the car made it a bit roomier

    These look interesting. Do you have a shot of it turned on at night so I can see the difference ? How are these different to a standard indicator bulb ?

    Yes, I have a 09 3 MPS Luxury (BL)

    I just google "Phillips Silver Vision" and went to the Phillips website

    I picked them up at AutoBarn for $45

    They look like the standard bulb but have a silver tint on them so you can't see them in the headlight compartment. They shine the standard orange colour

    They look good don't they. And they're long lasting, mine are maybe 18months now. No difference in colour, as they're ADR approved. But nice how they disappear in the reflector lenses.

    They are Philips Silver Vision indicator bulbs WY21W
    http://www.lighting.philips.com/in_e...ghting&lang=en

    I have seen some GenII MPS' that have an orange bezelling around the blinker, but mine is clear. Is this a Luxury fitted option?

    If so and you have the orange bezel you would have to work out how to remove it or replace it. It may have a clear bulb instead of one that shines orange

    The orange bezel is the non-luxury model.

    Mmm. No point changing the bulb if the bezel is still orange? Any idea if it can be remove or replaced?

    Any aftermarket items?
