Posted by tim97rs, Apr-28-01 07:48 AM
Just put in my "carbion fiber"=(checker painted) altezzas. i have a problem. which lights are on the very outer most (away from the center)part of the tail lights? turn signal, brake??? the bulb in there is on all the time when the lights are on, i.e.-runner lights, the issue is that part of the altezza is clear and the pointed end of the light is of course red. there is no type of divider inbetween the red and clear so i have whits lights showing while i drive around! illegal!!!!!! do i need a different type of light buld, what is that light for? it dosent blink with the turn signal, just stays on. HELP!!!
thanks guys....

the side bulbs dont blink so you could just take them out or paint them red. the two center bulbs stay on all the time and both of them blink with the turn signals. the side one does nothing

You are right the white bulbs will get you a ticket. I bought red coated bulbs for the sides. They stay on when the lights are turned on. The red bulb gives them a reddish cast to the altezza's. I think it looks pretty good. The white is to bright/annoying to look at.

at a local import shop here you can buy bulb covers so f@#k painting them red. buy some bulb covers. i think the cost like 50 cents or something.
