I need to split the front turn signal bucket into a clear driving light (side light) and the orange blinker.
I have done this using a capless bulb holder but as it is black and bulky it shows through the clear lens and looks rubbish. So i'm now going to remake the fittings using a BA9s fitting and bulb. I have found a few types, some ceramic or insulated and some with one or two wire connectors. Am i correct in thinking that the single wire non insulated holders will earth through the body of the bucket? leaving just the live to wire up to the loom? |

When I see some of those pix I can't understand why someone would put the euro lenses on and leave the god awful side markers. Either make it look like the euro car (without the side markers) or leave the US orange lenses... no car ever had the horrible US side markers AND the two bulb system.
