No more raw egg tail lights sedan styling repost - Toyota Yaris Forums

Replaced the yellow signals and the reverse lights with chrome light bulbs. So they blend completely into the tail light. More effectively than a clear bulb since they blink yellow. And the reverse lights are a bright white light now. I feel it gives the car a much cleaner look.

The turn signal still blinks yellow? Even when they're chrome?? Where'd you get those?

tuckevalastin · 01-14-2009, 05:12 PM

Looks good. I will be doing the same if I don't change tails.

I used 2 pairs of Philips Silvervision 7507 (or PY21W) to get rid of my fried egg look for both my front signals and my rear signals (I have TYC Tails).

These are absolutely the best, and are far better than the other chrome bulbs I have used (I have tried many others from eBay vendors and sites online). The Philips are the only bulbs I have been happy with. Don't waste your time with cheaper, crappy chinese chrome bulbs. You get what you pay for.

You get a name brand bulb manufacturer, making a street safe bulb, with consistent coating and finish, with NO loss of brightness when illuminated amber. The orange is as pure as a non-coated amber bulb. When off, the bulb is a very nice, subtle chrome, and cannot be seen in your mirror reflectors.

I got mine off of a vendor in the UK called clive296. Excellent guy, great prices, and fast shipping.

Yeah when mine burn out i plan to get those bulbs. I forget the brand i got. It wasnt a junk brand its a light bulb that my shop stocks normall but none chrome so must be a decent bulb

PETERPOOP · 01-14-2009, 07:11 PM

I don't know what you guys are talking about. I get the no name brands off of ebay and they are fine. No loss of lighting output and the finish is fine. Oh wells.
