Hi all

I am looking to replace my indicator bulbs with chrome, to make the lenses completely clear.

I know that they are 21w, but does anyone know if the pins are offset or opposite?.

Any help greatly appreciated.

You can get chromed bulbs that flash more orange than orange bulbs... Philips make them, they're pricey but excellent. HTH

Good luck trying to change the bulbs mind. Virtually impossible to get your hand in there to unscrew the back of the lamp.

I had to get the dealer to change a blown front indicator bulb on mine as I simply couldn't do it.

Apparently the chrome ones take away the slight orange glow in the middle of the lense (when not in use). This makes the lense completely clear.

They are only £3.99 + £2.99 postage per pair on ebay.

If my memory serves me right, Philips Silver Vision are about £15.00 a pair.
