On my 2001, I just popped the light bulb sockets out of the old lights, inserted them with new bulbs in the new TYC lights and attached them to the bumper with the two original screws.

Thanx for the reply.
My PT only came with one reverse light and a rear facing fog light.
I ran some wire from the original reverse light to the new one last night and all seems to be working ok. Wow...they are so much brighter! Cheers

I know that APC makes some 3157 they are a blue bulb but they are uber bright compared to the stock bulbs.. Now if you can them down under that would be the tricky part.. OEM replacement but they are blue tinted bulb but so much brighter..

And if you think the stock rear is hard to see at night don't ever get a PTeazer rear rollpan you can't see squat(sorry ray ) since the lights get relocated to the bottom of the facia.. It looks smokin hot though..

My personal thanks to veteran and novice crewbies that have offered information and how-to's they have been instrumental in taking LiquidPT from modded car to stock to live a more quiet and sedate life.
