Matts Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Ok this matter is confusing me so i am hoping someone could point me in the correct direction, im wanting to put 98 spec rear lights in my n/a maybe even red on red ones but im confused as to why everyone is talking about needing another loom for one side and the standard loom for the other side? what will i need to complete this task? i plan on wiring them JDM style.Amjad's picture Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SiCaln Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 You will need a new loom for both rear lights as they do not have the top lights illuminated on the UKDM model, you can get them from me if you like Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rob_bower Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 is it not the bottom ones that doesnt light up? as the bottom is the reverse and fog? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 You need to source a twin fillament bulb holder to give you a foglight in the bottom right light otherwise u need an external foglight for the mot. The top ones fit the bottom so you jist need another one of them.Then wiring is a case of bridging top to the lower wattage fillament on the right side frombthe top side light and the brighter to the foglight wiring.Then top left sideloght to the only filament on the bottom left light.Job done!P.s You do not need reversing light for your mot!

Pandamonium Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Is this just for 98/99 spec lights? or reflect in general? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

morgey Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I got mine from someone breaking there V judt need either of there side/brake light holders with a few inches of wire, if they wont cut it u may have to buy the hole taillight loom which unplugs under the plastics near the rear right strut iircHope that helps bud ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
metalmickey0 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I got 98 spec on my n/a already too. Lower left clear lens is reverse light and lower right side clear lens i have a stop light red bulb in for fog. The two top clear lenses have red twin filament bulbs in too. So all is still legal Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LukeH Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 have you got the glanza boot (ie: revers light in number plate surround)if so:need 2 dual filliment holders & wire. local scrappy may have an n/a you can take the holders from.bottom left- dual filliment red bulb. dimmer filliment connection needs to link in line with the sidelight.use terminal block connections to make sure you got it right before soldering up.bottom right- dual filliment bulb. similarly dimmer of the two connects in line with your sidelight (like bottom left)the brighter side of the bulb needs to connect to your fog.obvioulsy youll now have no reverse light in the rear lenses.

Amjad Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I wired mine to have the bottom ones just working as sidelights, but yes if you want a fog light to be one of the two bottom lights, then you'll need a dual filament holder to work as sidelight and fog Quote Link to post Share on other sites
