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? |

Remember that the turn signal bucket is plastic, so you're not going to ground anything through that anyway...
