    Hi all, I was wondering does anyone know where you can get the globe holders for the side lights in the indicator/park lens. I know 1 is always there but there is a 3 pronged one at the sides and I have tried and now luck getting a set

    Thanks in advance

    Martin i think the listing was from a UK seller and i think it was for LED installation but would still work i assume.

    It's not hard finding bulb holders exactly, but it is hard finding ones with fittings on them and an o-ring weather strip.

    Have you guys checked the Narva catalogue online? Don't know if they'd be in there but it's the first place I'd look

    Not sure but they had heeps already in boxes taken off cars. I took my rear clearance lights in and showed them . He said they are standard t10 ? holders from memory. They even had rubber seals on them . I just drilled the hole out on the back of the clearance lamps then filed the little slots for the mounting tabs. A very easy job. Just make sure they have enough wire to solder in. I had to run the wires to my tail lights as there didn't seem to be any there ( jdm ? ). Still a easy job and well worth the effort.

    SURELY someone has tried and done it? There has to be some z owner out there thats tracked down with some success the globe holders/ How difficult can it be as I know I have exhausted all I can think of. Or does no one worry about it and leave it just blank?

    I am not sure what type of globe goes in it....but I reckon you are rite. Its just that every gloabe holder I have tried even from looking in u-puu-it for parts they are all either to small or too big. Tried even emaailing suppliers of the lens and they reply they dont sell them.so fat help that is.....and no answer as to where I can get them

    T-10 holders sound right. Nice and small and you can fit wedge type bulb or LED

    I got mine from second hand from Nizz Pro on the Gold Coast with a few inches of loom and soldered everything in.

    It cost me under $10
