    why why why???? the bulb holder socket for my newly arrived nismo clear side indicator is not the same as the old yellow one?

    this new one is for 2 clips whilst the old one for three clips wedge bulb holder. they have the same part no though.Can I get the bulb holder separately?

    anyone experience the same?


    post scriptum:they are from perfect run
    undoubtly the service was excellent.

    i thought so. but the 2 left tabs (irrerspective which one i take off) wont be opposite to each other to be squared to the socket.. it wont be because the olds tabs are equally distanced.

    99% of us have used a small file to carry out the needed

    mod to have the indicator to fit properly ... easy, peasy if this dildo can do it ...:biggrin: :biggrin:

    .. there will also be heaps to found on search for this particular job....

    Try a wrecker....

    I believe Sylvia's have the correct bulb connector for the clear side indicators.......you can pick them up for a few bucks & hard wire them to your existing wires!

    :D lol

    and mate, why spend money on a holder when all you have to do is file the back, it doesnt make any difference. just use a file, save yourself some money, it VERY easy :)
