Tail lights - amber turn signals

[Quickstop [UK]]

Has anyone seen any Euro style lenses with amber turn signals? At the moment I have to use the reverse light with an orange bulb and have a gay extra reverse lamp dangling off the bottom. We can't use red turn signals in the UK.

I can't tell from the websites if there are any - the colours aren't distinct enough for me to tell.

:dunno:

Thanks in advance,

Re: Tail lights - amber turn signals

I have seen places where you can buy liquid to mold your own orange lenses. Cut out red, make mold, make orange, glue in?

I love amber turn signals... it's a better visual indicator of stopping vs. turning. Not to mention, amber is easier to see at a distance.

Euro = teh win!

The Euro is fooked and is a massive piece of socialist architecture - the whole EU is the Soviet Union reincarnated.

You Dutch drive on the right because of the French, just like the US. The FRENCH.

Are most people right handed or left handed? ,..... right handed, so your main driving hand should be on the wheel. If you sit on the left, your best hand is used for the gears... that's gay.

Jeff, thanks for the link.... I wonder if they do them in the UK.

PR1975 - it's orange in the UK for those very reasons.



So no lenses in the US with orange indicators? Bueller?

I've never seen first gen S Blazer tails with amber, though I have seen second gen Blazers with amber (UK Blazers on the internet).

The only American US spec car with rear amber signals that I readily think of are older Camaros.

Re: Tail lights - amber turn signals

i had a Ty that had amber lenses (OEM GM) completly red with amber lensen, never knew what was up with that, but it looked like crap.if i still had that truck i would have gave them to you for free, because you drive on the wrong side of the road.

Where is my whiskey??

Re: Tail lights - amber turn signals

i HATE amber turn signals. my dad bought a 99 silverado, and those bastards have the hideous amber (candy corn looking) turn signals. i went and bought all red ones off a newer model for it. i would however like to see ty ones.
you could get all clear euros off ebay, and take em apart and tint them.

Mine are red. But many S10 who ran on Belgian soil, had the orange included.
If I find a pair, I let you know.

Still looking for a pic. (harder than I tought to find one on the net)

Those are mine. Check out the rear fog light near the license plate (with E number)

And how about to use fillers, and go nuts to put anything you like on them...
tail light fillers in steel

And some I saw who inverted half of the reverse lense. (1/2 blinker 1/2 reverse), or they just screwed a round amber on top (not nice)

Re: Tail lights - amber turn signals

did you ever get this sorted out? i recently put amber marker light bulbs in my all clear taillights. if you rewired them you could use them as turn signals? i can e-mail or text you pics, if you want,

Re: Tail lights - amber turn signals

You have all clear tail lights? That might work! Please send pics or post em up here.

Thanks!

Re: Tail lights - amber turn signals

will do. i had all red bulbs in them for the last few years. one blew a while back, so when putting them back in i added amber bulbs to the marker lights for shits and giggles. then i remembered this thread. ill take a pic tonight when it gets dark.

Re: Tail lights - amber turn signals

There's T90 RPO code which stands for Export turn signals configuration or smth like that. There are 2 taillights p/n's for this rpo - 5976797 and 5976798 (LH and RH).

My guess is these will work. It's kinda hard to find them, though.
