Rear Lights V6

[wrx-172]

Been looking at changing rear lights on MK1 V6.. not keen on standard ones at all but unsure what to change to as some are very tacky.

Question is

Should I Or shouldnt I?

If so which to go for?

 

[iwantaV6]

get the mk2 ones mate, they look good and fit straight on.

 

[jph172]

Yeah they would look sweet. I decided to go with the lexus styly!!

 

[wrx-172]

Was thinking MK2 they do look nicer... What about Ktecs range?

 

[badinvincible]

Mk2 lights, dont bother about any others unless your car is black, which it isnt....

 

[badinvincible]

Any excuse for a picture...

Does any wiring have to be changed? As arent the bulbs slightly diff in mk2?

 

[miketheman2k]

Yes, but its very simple (I even let my girlfriend do it ). Theres an article somewhere....(anyone?)

 

[wrx-172]

Do the wires unclip or need to be cut?



Reason I ask is I have already fitted mk2 Lexus style (from Ktec) to a friends Clio mk1 and wires just unclip and change on holder.



Not sure if this was an after market thing or was on standard lights too?

 

[miketheman2k]

Just unclip, once youve figured out the technique, its dead easy.

 

[wrx-172]

Sweet as gonna get them next week!

 

[wrx-172]

Got the MK2 rear lights... Just need to change wiring round later 2 night..



Couldnt resist a quick pic though!!

[wrx-172]

All sorted now.. Fitted and re-wired! Cheers for info and help guys

Which wires need changed over. I put the Mk2 lights on my Mk1 and the reverse lights came on instead of the indicators. Is it just the indicators and reverse that need swicthed over? - Do you do this in the loom if so how - or is there something in the actual light unit to change.
Cheers

 

[miketheman2k]

Sorry I can not remember which need changing, but I do know that this is all done from the where the wires go into the plug (which in turn connects to the light unit) - you dont cut anything!

 

[Bailey]

Hey guys. I asked Renault about changing over my lights to the MK2 and they said they wouldnt fit?

 

[miketheman2k]

Maybe they thought you meant the fronts?

Very easy to do, just change the order of the wires - simple

 

[Bailey]

No I asked them I wanted to change the front and back and indicators. They said none of them fit. Do they or dont they then? I have no idea....

 

[miketheman2k]

The backs do, the rest dont
