the rear bulbs came today (same size as the front, but I just ordered for the rear turn signals)



Stock


Installed


Light up (left Silvervision/right stock)


One thing i realize is that the silvervision appears to be brighter than stock in person!

Although this is such a small mod, but it makes a world of difference IMO, recommend anyone to do this.

these probably will never come as they are not DOT approved but ECE approved in UK.

*there are similar and replica of these bulbs here in US, but the quality just don't match.

Nice look. Works for '07 GSs? Is it the same bulb for rear or different part number?

Damn, I didn't realize it was the same bulb in the front as in the rear. Now I'm going to have to try and order another set... anything else from powerbulbs I should order before I place this one Kev? I ordered my fronts on the 13th and they guy at powerbulbs just told me they went out on Tuesday of this week. Talk about slow!


Thanks again for all your help...

Damn.....I wished I had order the front and rear at the same time so I do not need to wait this long. I had the same problem, the guy just told me that my bulb shipped Tuesday and will be getting here in about 5-10 days....can not wait!!!!!

Same here, ordered 1 set only to realize I should have ordered another set for the rear. I can just hear the comments at powerbulb "dumb Americans"! Haha!

LOL, you guys should've listened! I only got one pair at the time to test the fitment as the european standards and US are bit different but these works perfectly

I placed my second one on 2/12 and received them yesterday on 2/27. So takes about 15 days of slow transit. Mine has always been shipped (despatched, they called it) the next day after I ordered.

but think of it this way, you guys will get 2 sets of free osrams



CsKWarEd - haha, that's all I ordered from them now, I can usually find the rest of my bulbs here in US

TXprfrmnce - I am sure the '07 is the same

dunnojack - We kinda did with the 08 side mirrors

The rear bulbs really make a nice subtle improvement.
I ordered my front AND rears on the 22nd, so here's to hoping for only 9 more days...
cant wait to install the osrams too!

So does it really get rid of all that yellow look in the rear? I think I still see some yellow in the pics, but not sure.
